Antiexsibilator

Antiexsibilator: noun. A machine used in television studios to absorb and remove the collective hisses of a disapproving audience. Antiexsibilators were invented by Walt Disney to give his cartoons more confidence on the stage when they were performing some of their early cartoons in front of a live audience. The machines were such a great success that a large number of people think that Disney's success can be attributed specifically to antiexsibilators.
