Matt Groening's Springfield cop-out
From today's NY Times, we learn that Springfield, Vermont is not the true home of the Simpsons.
In what state is the Simpsons’s fictional Springfield located? Certainly not Vermont. You’ll find out in the movie. We actually reveal the states that Springfield borders on.
Can you tell me now? Maine, Kentucky and — I can’t remember what the others are. The point is that Springfield is in your heart. (Link)
In your heart? What kind of cop-out is that? C'mon, Matt, I know you left town and all, but how about just a little hometown love?
