Barris revealed that his last straw with ABC was the network's shelving -- and as the magazine adds, all but erasing from existence, with scripts and copies nowhere to be found -- "Please, Baby, Please," a "Black-ish" episode that included news footage of NFL players protesting, Charlottesville and Trump (which had been scheduled to air on February 27). The network jettisoned the episode reportedly because executives "feared they'd be alienating the very population they'd tried so hard to court."

Apparently Mr Barris doesn't realize that ABC is in business. To make money. And for that it needs to attract viewers. It doesn't air shows to make political statements (although many times the networks do).

It’s possible that it sees more money from political and communist operations.. such as the Clinton Foundation or the ChiComs.

Not saying it’s a fact, but it could be. The ChiComs open up their markets but only to those who bash America.
