#SayItAintSo: CBS Cancels Judge Joe Brown

damn. Damn. DAMN!


Somewhere, a housewife is drowning in her tears.

Judge Joe Brown is no more. After 15 years on a televised bench, America's longest running African American TV judge has been given the great karate chop:
The cancellation comes after negotiations on a new contract broke down, apparently over Brown’s salary. He reportedly has been making $20 million a year, but CBS Television Distribution was looking to trim his compensation in line with a decline in his ratings.
Basically, Judge Joe Brown (You have to say the whole name. You just have to.) was down in ratings. His time slot is a money maker and lower ratings means CBS can't charge as much for advertising during his show. As a result, CBS wanted to lower his salary. Of course, Judge Joe Brown is not having that, soooo, CBS throws up the deuces.

Yikes! More money more problems.

Wait a minute... Judge made $20 million a year?  O_O
