Re:Hasbro? How about WotC. (Score 2, Interesting)

From Monte Cook: "Hasbro did not save WotC. If you're thinking this, you might be confusing the time WotC bought TSR. TSR was rapidly going out of business, and WotC, from a certain point of view, "saved" the company. Hasbro bought WotC when WotC had more money than it knew what to do with. Most (although not all) of the downsizing and layoffs that have affected WotC since then have come because of Hasbro, not WotC. WotC, since Habro bought it, has been one of the largest contributors of that company's bottom line. If anything, WotC saved Hasbro--at least for the last couple of years."
