Please be advised that Batman....
.... has more important things to do than make speeches.
However, if you'll note the panel in the center of this page:
Batman apparently gives a lecture daily. By the oiled pectorals of Fabio, how lame is that?
This was a classic moment where Batman gets his feelings hurt by lack of public support. Because if the public won't support you, what's the point of being a masked vigilante operating outside the law?
Even at the end of the story, Bats is fishing for compliments:
In all the psychoanalytical articles I've read about Batman's issues, I've never seen anyone touch on this crippling self-esteem situation. It's kind of sad, really. Someone needs a hug!
See you tomorrow!

LOL! I love the punchline. Obviously, the public failed to notice him and his insecurities and low self esteem issues sunk in leading to the Dark Knight story arc. :-)
Comics Make No Sense...maybe, But they sure used ta be a lot more fun!
What do you suppose was the topic of some of Batman's other nightly "lectures"? The mind reels!
How about a lecture on how to violate due process and police brutality laws while still giving scheduled lectures in a public setting, and never getting arrested?
I guess writing for comics is hard sledding.
See...Robin set Batman straight.
