I'm pretty sure shareholders are not too keen on spotty returns...

You might be surprised. Disney is a pretty good example of activist shareholders undermining the value of their brand for purely ideological reasons. This is a little easier to wrap your head around when you recognize Black Rock-type situation where the custodians of the funds are able to take extraordinary personal liberty with other people’s money.

    Government will always financially bail out they who control the most eyeballs as it keeps politicians from dangling from capital buildings and bridges.
