Roger Moore and the Hat Industry

Gorilla Sushi is holding Roger Moore to account for the death of fashionable men's hats.
I've been watching the 007 marathon they had on Starz ("007 in '07"), and the thing that strikes me most from the earlier episodes (most notably the opening gunshot scene), and I realized that the hat in the opening gunshot barrel vanished when Roger Moore took over as Bond.

So I'm blaming Roger Moore's term as James Bond, and his dislike for hats (he never wore a hat as The Saint, either) for killing the entire hat industry.

I thought it was generally agreed that JFK killed the hat. His popularity and glamorous, youthful public image had a big influence on men of the times, so when he skipped the hat, so did they.
