What does it mean to say that there are different publics that help make up public opinion?
Oh, dude, it's like this - when we talk about different publics making up public opinion, we're basically saying that not everyone thinks the same way. It's like having a buffet of opinions, you know? Some people are into spicy takes, others prefer mild, and then there are those who just stick to the salad bar. So yeah, different publics bring their own flavors to the table when it comes to shaping public opinion.

What does it mean if an appellate court affirms a judgment?
"Affirmed" means the appeals court found no error or cause to reverse the decision of the lower court, and upheld the original decision. This means the decision of the lower court is final, unless the losing party petitions a higher court of appeal (if one exists). If the highest court capable of reviewing the case affirms the lower court decision, the decision is binding and the case legal complete (res judicata).When an appellate court 'affirms' the decision, they are agreeing with the lower court.As an example, let's say:Matt is arrested and charged with first degree murder. During the trial, it comes out that the police did not read Matt his Miranda Rights. If Matt is convicted of murder, he has the option to appeal to a higher court.Matt appeals over the fact that he was not read his rights after arrest. If the appellate court 'affirms' the previous court's decision, Matt's appeal was dismissed (or Matt lost).Matt would still be forced to serve the first degree murder sentence.

Can an ex offender use a Writ of Certiorari to clear a wrongful conviction?
Ex offender doesn't mean anything, do you mean an ex convict, e.g. someone who has served his/her sentence and been released? In American law, when a case is decided the parties have a right to review by an appellate court. For example, if someone is convicted in Federal District Court, they have the right to have their case reviewed by the Federal Court of Appeals. After the Court of Appeals, they can appeal to the Supreme Court but the Supreme Court can choose whether or not to hear the case. If the Supreme Court decides to hear the case, the Supreme Court issues a Writ of Certiorari, which directs the Court of Appeals to send the records to the Supreme Court. So the answer is no, a writ of certiorari isn't used by a convicted criminal to clear a wrongful conviction. The court uses a writ of certiorari to take the case.
