I think this is exactly right. In order to make the most money, these corporations need to appeal to most of the people most of the time. Whether some were offended or others defensive, it doesn't make good business sense to take sides. Remember Hank Williams Jr or Jimmy the Greek? Yes, they spoke their minds but it cost them their jobs.

The problem today due to instant news traveling throughout the internet in warp speed, opinions are formed and sides are taken in a nanosecond. Corporate America has their collective undies tied in knots over instant reprisal, and this scares the hell out of them.

I totally believe in free speech, but sometimes it's better to keeps ones opinions private for the benefit of all. Everyone makes money then and everyone is happy.

Yeah, what's the old line? It's better to remain silent and be thought a fool than to speak and remove all doubt.

Hey, I been there. You?
