Goodkind has been saying stuff like this for years; I've come to regard him as a crank who doesn't realize that his fanbase is made up of mostly young adults and kids who WANT fantasy. That's why most of them read his books. He's alienated most other writers in the genre with comments like that; if I were his agent, I'd advise him to stop shooting his mouth off, before he does damage to himself. Just because you sell millions of books doesn't mean shit in this business; there will always be someone who does that, and not all of them are pretentious assholes. You can find yourself out of a job faster than you think.
