I’m not sure the court of public opinion has a hand in sentencing, only conviction. That said, if people feel strongly one way or the other they’ll either go see him or ignore him; eventually, bookers and others will find his “market value.” In the case of Louis CK, where he’d essentially pivoted to a self funded business model for both standup and other creative endeavours, it’s a pretty direct and accurate barometer.
Was there talk that CK spoke to Phil McGraw, or was that just a drive-by diss? Finally - showing up on a comedy club stage is not the same as “thinking you’ve served your time.” Its not like he came out announcing a new special and a 30-date arena tour. Who knows - maybe this was him taking he temperature and deciding a little more time away from the spotlight is needed; I don’t know.
