How do you know they did? Were you around when he died? Or do you have some older relatives who knew him?

He was largely forgotten when he died. I think you are talking about Columbia Pictures Harry Cohn. When he died he had a large funeral, and Red Skelton quipped: "People always come out for something they want to see."

Karma: Judy had enough of Ethel's domination, and cast her out of her life when she reached 18. Ethel died alone of a heart attack in a parking lot.

He was a creep with Judy and I won’t let that be forgotten.

Actually, I checked the Clark Gable story on Snopes; he did drive drunk, hit a tree, and had to go to the hospital, but no one was killed, and the dates appear to be 1933 and 1945. So, that story appears to be false. Also, I would suggest running photos that sync with what is being discussed rather than the same photos in a loop, but yes, L.B. Mayer was a horrible person who had no problem giving his child stars drugs and turning them into addicts for profit.

Irving Thalberg was not a "Director." He was the major Production Executive who was behind production. When Judy Garland was making THE WIZARD OF OZ, the studio strapped her breasts down and put her in a corset. Judy had a crush on Artie Shaw, and her first husband was David Rose, not ROSS!

Mayer was loved and hated by many - he was a contradictory personality - both kind and cruel. Joan Crawford described him as, "A beautiful man. The best friend I ever had." When Judy Garland was hospitalized because of her drug-taking, Mayer personally paid all her medical bills. Elizabeth Taylor hated him and once told him "You and your studio can go to hell." He never spoke to her after that, but did not fire her.

Amazing that the man is married yet they still blame the woman. He is having the affair with this still happens today. If you’re married it’s up to you to be respectful to your spouse. 2:51

He was sacked in1951, cuz MGM had gone three years without a major Academy Award, which provoked further conflict between Mayer and Nicolas Schenck who was the boss. He passed away in 1957

Given what Mayer did, no wonder some have said that controversial music mogul Clive Davis modeled his management style after Mayer.

This opening statement seems nonsensical. It definitely wasnt a necessary evil, As if it was necessary for people to be R worded and so on in order to have a movie industry.

But He was the person in charge! He had to be like that; he had a great responsibility managing a motion picture studio, along with everything included in this. I'm only talking about his pubblic person, privately, it's none of my business.

No. He started out as a scrap metal dealer in Nova Scotia. Read his bio - a fascinating story of a struggle for success. He is to be respected for what he achieved, if nothing else.
