The alleged political influences aside, here is an irrefutable reality. The last elections indicated a clear shift toward the political right. Republicans won the presidency, both the House and Senate by nearly 4 M votes nationwide, the majority of governorships, and the majority of bicameral state legislatures. Republicans have won two Congressional popular votes in a row, and now have both a trifecta and a triplex in 25 states. So, it is natural to assume that entertainment programming that routinely mocks, demeans and insults at least half of the American viewing audience is not only uncivil, it is a very poor, unsustainable business model!!
