Grim Chieftain

5. I'm conflicted about what he should do, too

It would be great for him to thumb his nose at ABC and leave and perhaps move to cable tv. The only problem with that is a lot of people don't get cable, especially now that inflation is so bad. If he stays on network tv, more people have access to his voice, which is critical, especially now - but that depends on whether he is free to speak his mind.

It's quite a dilemma.
