Liberal television audiences are finally exposing their racist, transphobic and misogynistic beliefs, right? That must be it. Case in point, Larry Wilmore’s show on Comedy Central? Cancelled:

Transgender Caitlyn Jenner’s show on E!? Cancelled:
After 2 amazing seasons of @IAmCait, it's time for the next adventure. Thank you E! & thank you to the best girlfriends I could ask for!

And we can now add feminist Amy Schumer’s show on Comedy Central to the list:
I didn't fire Kurt. He isn't a writer for my show because we aren't making the show anymore. There are no writers for it.

Although she later clarified that this doesn’t really mean cancelled, just on hiatus for the “foreseeable future”:

Weird. With all they hype from liberal media outlets on these three, you’d think they’d have done better in the ratings.
