No. This kind of thing is far more effective. I'd probably have never even heard about this unless they'd stayed and gone on-air with a notice like this.
If they walked they'd have been replaced and new writers would have made substitute content.

- CharlesColeman 7y ago> There will be no effect. No one took a stand, this will be forgotten immediately. That's a bold assertion, and seems to reflect a (false) underlying assumption that small effects are totally meaningless.
- JetSpiegel 7y agoThere are no effects. If you only watch the show but don't read NYT, you don't even know there was a controversy because of the censure. That's why censure is effective.
