Ask yourself these questions before you watch this video: 1. Do or did I use the typeface Comic Sans excessively? 2. Who is Paul Rand? 3. Do I like John Stossel?
As for myself, I wondered if this really did air on 20/20.
I've always wondered myself why Comic Sans was even used by "designers" at all? Unless, of course you are designing a comic book! Never had any good feelings related towards this typeface. wow, why am I beating up on a poor defeneless typeface? well, you get the point it's in poor taste, at least according to my own poor taste.

Apparently, Comic Sans was never intended to go mainstream.
I looked at that site that kevin provided and thought, "Oh that's interesting. Learn something new..."
