No need to take that program off the air because some don't like it, but others do. We have lots of forums to choose from and I disagree that because some don't like them we should deny the rest from enjoying them.

I agree Shimpy. I learned a lot from the Political Forum. And the fact that a member had to "opt in" to the Forum should have meant no complaints ... If a member was offended, they could simply "opt out"! But unfortunately the decision was made to shut it down. I continue to hope that it's not a permanent decision.
