Discovery canned Uncle Ted & more.

[jp1]

Almost as quickly as Ted Nugent’s show launched on the Discovery Channel this past October, it has ended. The network, in the wake of the Sandy Hook Elementary School shooting, announced that the program, titled, “Ted Nugent’s Gun Country,” will be discontinued. Considering sensitivities surrounding the horrific rampage and renewed calls among some leaders for increased gun control, Discovery’s decision is not entirely surprising.

But this isn’t the only show the network has canned following the shooting. “American Guns,” another Discovery series, was also cancelled, with executives declining to give definitive reasons for the removal of either show from its scheduled programming.

jp, figures. The anti-gunners are chipping away at the flanks, readying for a full assault at the center. I'm just waiting for the Justice Department to join the fray and go for the NRA. It's only a matter of time, but definitely within the next four years.

I never heard much about Ted's show, but I never heard of any one being particularly impressed with "American Guns".
From what I have heard, even though it is on "our" subject, an unreality show is no loss.
This judgement is second hand and based on comments I've read here.

I have not seen teds.

However I was able to see am guns
I did not mind it. Once you take all the "reality" bs out. Some of the work they did was good

+ it was a gun show I was able to watch and something that did make to on to a wider audience and that is a good thing IMO

But guys the positive thing, like the shows or not, is that it brought more people to our side!

I'll bet the one's with good ratings will be back after this blows over.

I could take or leave AG but I liked Ted's show and wrote Discovery about their cancellation while keeping Peppers.
