BREAKING e.tv cancels The Steve Wilkos Show

You're reading it here first. I'm first to tell that e.tv has just decided to cancel the daytime talk show The Steve Wilkos Show. Steve was Jerry Springer's main bodyguard dude before he got his own spinoff show. The last episode will go out on 25 August at 13:30. It will be replaced with repeats of wrestling. The broadcaster isn't giving any reasons why.
E.tv is suddenly canning a lot of shows and not replacing it with new programming but repeats. It means that the broadcaster (a) don't have money or is trying to save for other projects (i know of something BIG. Like AFRICA big. A scoops which I'm not going to dish about just yet) or (b) is making short term line-up changes that it didn't plan for.
