No, we're just familiar with Hicks works, and since he made a career ripping him off, it's perfectly acceptable to give him shite for the Ford commercials. One of Hicks more famous bits was calling out Jay Leno for being a scumbag hack by starring in the Doritos commercials. Said unless you're struggling to survive, the second you give into those sponsorships that you're merely a hack. So yeah, he would have eviserated Leary had he been alive to see the Ford commercials.

Apparently Norm MacDonald isn't of the same POV.

Well i think Hicks gets a lot of credit for being edgy. And there is no honor in not making money simply for the point of not making money. Its not like Leary is shilling, or dancing for his money. He's doing voice over work. Non-comedic voice over work.
