<<<You don't understand my point, after Ellen's outing, her ratings DID tank, thus the sponsors pulled the plug......If her ratings soared after that, even protests from the Pope probably wouldn't get her off the air. >>>

We're not arguing. However, remember one thing. Ellen's coming out episode met a firestorm of critical public opinion week's before it appeared but that didn't stop the network from showing it.


<<When I say "public opinion" I mean it in the sense of ratings.....>>

True, in terms of the network the only "public opinion" that counts is ratings.
