Can Bob Barker threaten a state's tourism?

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Former game show host Bob Barker is threatening North Carolina that tourists are going to stay away from their state, and vowing that "Things are going to change on the Cherokee reservation, I promise," based on Barker’s position on the treatment of local bears.

However, after Barker's recent public relation's debacle and loss to longtime animal rights activist Betty White over the LA Zoo's elephant, how much clout does the aged self promoter still have?

Based on the predominantly anti-Barker comments following this article, combined with the recent "FYB" movement on the internet in response to primadonna Barker's poor-sport treatment of the beloved Betty on the GSN Awards Show,

the question is; Does Bob Barker still have the PR clout to threaten North Carolina and the Cherokee Indian Nation?

For one obvious reason, I'm on the bears' side.
This isn't a plug, but you can ask me about my book.
