Original Note:
The Simpsons character, Mr. Burns, was not inspired by Jacob Rothschild. “Matt Groening based the Mr. Burns character mostly on his high school teacher, Mr. Bailey, as well as oil tycoon, John D. Rockefeller and his grandson, David Rockefeller.” https://www.techarp.com/facts/mr-burns-jacob-rothschild/ https://www.yahoo.com/entertainment/fact-check-simpsons-character-mr-205100987.html https://factcheck.afp.com/doc.afp.com.34KC8Z2 https://www.indy100.com/news/jacob-rothschild-mr-burns
