Right, they pulled the show because the advertisers (or the ones footing the bill) learned that their customers (the ultimate payors of that bill) would not watch. I don't see why this has you up in arms. It is the consequence of a free society. If it was the government telling CBS not to air, that's one thing, but if it's CBS' customers, that's quite another.
