What will happen next?-networks dropping a certain program due to controversy

[Hudsons81]

We've seen our fair share recently-first with all the controversy around Bill Cosby, then with the increasing controversy of the already-controversial Confederate flag after it was featured prominently in a church shooting.

What do you think will happen next? I can't think of any right now.

The people running Viacom are a bunch of hypocrites.

When they The Bill Cosby thing came out last year they dropped the show from TVLAND, but not their sister network (from the BET division) Centric. They didn't drop it on Centric until 2 weeks ago when his 2005 disposition came out that said he admitted to drugging women.

Then they dropped Dukes of Hazzard from TVLAND because of the flag. But according to one source TVLAND's sister network CMT is still airing the show. Until the story came out I never even noticed the flag being on the roof of the car.

My guess is it will be Married With Children and any other 80's/90's sitcoms that
routinely made fun of gay people.

This dropping of programs is getting ridiculous. Those network execs should get a life.

The networks can't just drop a show because of controversy. Those network executives are getting too PC now!  :-X
