Television Autism: Tommy Westphallutin'

   If upwards of 80% of television takes place inside the snow globe and imagination of an autistic boy (now, like, autistic man, man) then how come television often get autism so wrong? Is it because he himself does not understand it? That seems the likeliest explanation.

   You'd figure he'd learn a little more over time and changes in his understanding would reflect in the shows, but, nope, there's only more room for more misunderstanding there as the issue creeps its way into the public consciousness in real life. Dang.
