The public's attitude conveyed to us through the words (songs) of the chorus would be that he can do no wrong. Everyone wants to believe that Oedipus is completely innocent of what they learn during the course of the play, and in the end they are horrified by it. Fortunately for Oedipus, they pity him more than anything else.
