apparently won't. They don't have a major group like an NAACP or ACLU saying anything. In Trump land, this will be a non-issue.

There was some blowback from a few sources like Variety, but it hasn't made any national news programs yet. -- nm - GregW Jul 9, 09:21
Unless I missed something (certainly possible), they announced they were leaving on Wednesday. The reason just leaked in the last 24 hours. -- nm - David Jul 9, 09:16 4
- It was known during the negotiations and it was stated as the reason they left on Wednesday. -- (link) - jnine Jul 9, 09:36 2
  - Okay. I've read several articles over the past 24 hours referencing a Kim post from yesterday morning. - David Jul 9, 09:42 1
    - I think he got frustrated because his co-star won't back him up and the story isn't getting traction. -- nm - jnine Jul 9, 09:46
- I am pretty sure I knew the reason the day they were leaving was announced. -- (edited) - Bacon Jul 9, 09:19
The show is easily expendable. If it's trouble for CBS, they'll just cancel it and spin up another procedural just like it. -- nm - Mop Jul 9, 09:15 8
- WTF -- nm - con_carne Jul 9, 09:30
- No. It's the #8 scripted show on television. -- nm - David Jul 9, 09:20 6
  - You said it yourself. It follows a well worn formula. How have they not yet done NCIS Pearl Harbor? -- nm - Mop Jul 9, 09:56 1
    - CBS has only launched two successful dramas without NCIS in the title in the last five seasons. - David Jul 9, 10:10
  - Which...holy shit. -- nm - Will Hunting Jul 9, 09:39 3
    - Blue Bloods is even higher. The CBS Friday night lineup is a quiet juggernaut. -- nm - David Jul 9, 09:41 2
      - Blue Bloods has 155 episodes and the most recent season (season 7!) was the highest rated yet. It's rather stunning. -- nm - Tim Jul 9, 09:47 1
        
        Ted Danson's clearly the greatest living television star under 80. Tom Selleck's probably second. -- nm - David Jul 9, 09:53
