Your answer is simplistic to the point of being facile.
There are multiple options in this age of satellite tv. Consumers have a choice. They can stop watching, they can organize protests of advertisers, they can attend stock owner meetings, they can write letters, hell they can protest the station itself. It is a company and its customers are important to it that's the facile, simplistic truth accept it or not.
