The sponsors did not want to be associated with treason. No ad dollars, no show.....

kholt: who 'took it off the air?'

The ABC affiliate station in Washington. I don't know whether it was an editorial decision or whether it was a problem with sponsorship. My sense is it's the former. I infer this from comments I've heard made about the decision and from the relatively cosmopolitan atmosphere in Washington. It's hard to imagine that sponsorship would be available everywhere but Washington. I caught a few minutes of Bill Marr on the Larry King show the other day and they both gave the impression it was the affiliate.
