The message isn't entirely clear but I think it generally amounts to
-Television networks are willing to put anything on for popularity regardless of content and the film writer and director had a lot of disdain for that, that people should care a lot more about the content.
-Populist rage can be helpful, or at least have some value, in bouts but television ultimately diffuses whatever anti-establishment views it may air.
-Kind of at odds with the previous two points, corporations may be willing to take losses to air their preferred views; regardless of whether they do or not, it does matter who owns a network.
