Has anything, literally anything, he said been supported by anyone else? His claims are at best unsubstantiated and at worst they're contradicted by other people.

He did not make up the personilities of the Turtles (just read the Micros), he did not create Bebop and Rocksteady (Fred Wolf claims he got them from Playmates, there are sketches predating the production of the show signed by Peter Laird and Kevin Eastman claims they were initially designed for the RPG books), he did decide to have April wear a jumpsuit (she wore one in her debut appearence), he did not write most of the jokes (the cast claims to have been adlibbing), he did not write in the phrase "Cowabunga" (Coleman adlibbed it), putting Shredder into the show was not his call (the character was part of the initial batch of toys so it had to have been decided from the start) etc.

I could go on forever. It's also worth noting a pattern in his claims, whenever it's something "iconic" and fondly remembered (like the stuff I mentioned) he happily takes credit for it, but when it's something that has been mocked (Krang's design, the look of the Technodrome, Dregg etc) he gladly shifts the blame to other people.
