IMO title is clickbaity, as there seem to be other contributing factors (like declining viewership and quality).<p>Apple TV also tends to focus on quality over quantity, which I really like, so I raise my eyebrows a bit less when they cancel something that's only "OK."<p>Not that this is OK, I just don't like the title.
On the one hand, there shouldn't be restrictions on the stories you report.<p>On the other hand, if the result is reporting zero stories, is that better?<p>I feel like there are more important stories that Stewart could cover, in more depth, than simply raising awareness that Apple has business ties to China. This story will cycle out and become nothing soon enough.
