I really enjoyed the episode, and unlike the neigh-sayers, thought it struck the right note. Perhaps my favorite aspect was the subtle but very firm secondary lesson: without demand, there is no supply. If all of Ponyville hadn’t been so hungry for the gossip, there would not have been the imperative to feed it—and it’s all in fun until one’s own ox gets gored. The Mane Six acted as surrogates for this town-wide appetite.
