I cannot see why he should quit.As far as i know,he was not found guilty of anything yet.He is not a deputy,a cop,a general,an officer within some gvt ministry. The country is not at risk if he stays on TV.At least,he shows that he will fight his case and will not get out of the country !
If after a trial he is found guilty,he is the one to take his responsabilities,meanwhile,it should be business as usual.

I am with Khun Dark Side #3, on this one. I ask myself a question whether taxpayers' money is involved, and the answer is "No." So, this is something the Court, through the legal process, will have to get to the bottom of it. Also, the people will have to judge for themselves through their viewerships whether they are approved of him or not. Let's keep our eyes on the rice pleading program which has a likely potential of ruining the country in the most damaging way imaginable, shall we?

Why is there not a spot to click the choice of "Does anyone really care?"

I think the current 80% No in this poll is not really surprising because he is popular so many people want to see him.
I would love to see a poll with a question like: If it would be proven that this popular news anchor embezzled millions of baht, should he still continue with his show or should he go to jail? I guess still more than 50% would want to see him because who cares in Thailand if something is illegal as long as many people think it is fun or they personally benefit from it. TiT
