He's an author, not a producer. And since fans make hugely wild assumptions all the time without getting called on the carpet for it, what's the big deal this time? Even "professionals" can be fans... or be not-fans. *shrug* I've seen people pass comment on a show they've never seen before and speculate about the show, its producers, and its stars all without knowing one lick of info about any of it.
Or maybe Jim saw some of the previews for SG-1 and figured the producers had to be getting desperate. Or he thought about how HE'D feel after ten years of doing the same dang thing and projected it onto TPTB. *shrug*
I certainly don't think it was a malicious agenda, I think it was just an offhand comment made on an assumption. This time it happened to be wrong, but to be perfectly honest, if I hadn't read stuff from the producers I'd probably have thought the same thing. If Jim has any problem it's that he's giving the producers too much credit, assuming that they'd know when to say "stop."
