Does certain video have contempt for daytime soap operas in general?

Oh, MY GOD the first time I watched that a while back I cried.  I hated it.  So many fallacies as well.  I"m writing a book on daytime and all my points I mention debunk all of his.

 

He needs to be tied to a chair and watch Michael Malone's OLTL, Douglas Marland's ATWT, Henry Selsars EON, and CL/PM's Ryans hope.  Good CHRIST is he wrong.  I hate it when people say, "They were created to sell soap!"  No, before the 50s they were hear to sell things most people made, including soap, Variety coined the term.  You see, the term came to be because, as said, they were created to sell household products, yet, when done right they were considered the best of radio drama.  Opra was consedered the best of entertainment, hence, the terms 'Soap Opera'.  Soap being something everyone in the home uses. 

 

Further, ALL TELEVISION AND RADIO IS USED TO SELL.  You could even say, "Primtime Proceduals are created to sell cars"  Same damnable thing.

 

Ugg, I could go on.

 

PS.  Message me for more info and sorry about the typos.
