 Your claim only has partial truth to it, and ends up sounding quite silly 
 without the details you omitted.  The senario did not occur as you claim it 
 did, like this: 
  
 One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest released -> public outrage -> mental 
 hospitals 
 closed. 
  
 It went like this: 
  
 One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest Released -> public outrage -> indepth 
 reports 
 from 60 Minutes and other major media about deporable conditions at mental 
 hospitals -> mental hospitals closed.
