Everytime I see Ice Cube in wonder if he even enjoys making movies.
Twitter chose to show me this, because it thinks I retweet stuff like it.

I thought he provided some story, plot, or lore, too? I was under the impression a lot of his lines were adlibbed, too.
You can just replace voice actors and no one can tell the diddly-ifference.
Yeah, tell that to the whole Futurama/John DiMaggio kerfluffle that happened recently
Sure, but he still lost the kerfuffle.
So they knew and still did nothing? Or the WRITERS knew and didn't say anything? Or they told the brass and weren't believed?
The Simpsons is and has been having something of a revival in the past few years, as a new generation of writers that grew up watching the show have come on and started writing for it. It's not the same kind of show anymore (how could it be? Everything transgressive about it in the 90's is mainstream now) but the writing is noticeably improved and it's become absolutely fierce in it's criticisms.
My guess is WB split the difference. "Ok, we investigated and found you've got a valid gripe about Justin being a sex pest. But here's the thing - Rick and Morty is a FUCKING gold mine and we're not going to do ANYTHING to derail that. So here's the compromise. You SHUT THE FUCK UP about the whole thing, and Roiland does all his work from home, you never have to see him again, you keep your job, everybody makes money, win-win. GOT IT?"
Likely the first one. People are selfish, and they had what is a hit show in which Justin voices both title characters. They basically threw him out quietly but kept him on the voices because they didn't want to end the gravy train, hoping the actual accusations wouldn't become public. This is probably why Justin went off and made his gaming company.
