Doesn't deliver on kickstarter promises (that's called theft).
Writes his female actresses into compromising/uncomfortable roles.
Harbors a hostile working environment.

One of these things alone would be enough to sink anyone else's career. And these are just the things we know of. So why is he being given a free pass?

People are afraid if they confront him with this stuff he'll yell shrilly at them.

Maybe you should post specific examples or something.

I've already hit on the main points, particularly stealing people's money (people he calls his "fans", no less).

This forum post has links to a lot of previous cast members, all with their anecdotes of how shitty it is to work at Channel Awesome.

My favorite is the one about how they're filming in a hot environment and Doug had to be told that the cast and crew needed water. Apparently, he's also technically inept. He doesn't know how to compose with more than one camera and isn't smart enough to backup footage so it doesn't get lost (which it did).

Just lol

I really only watched him for the Nostalgia Critic videos, at least before they became over-produced.

This doesn't really have anything to do with intellectual property. He's in charge of creating a show with the $90,000 his fans gave him, but they just didn't do it. And then there's the working conditions thing...
