I've got major Issues! (They took away Issues, Etc.!)

..or rather, I don't anymore. I--along with hundreds or more of others around the world--am trying to get to the bottom of why something happened to Issues, Etc., but for now I will just give a bit on what I do know.

I know that:

1.) The KFUO (http://kfuoam.org/) radio program Issues, Etc. was a great asset to Lutherans and other Christians all around the world thanks to web streaming.

2.) There is no longer an Issues, Etc. radio program.

3.) The Issues, Etc. website (http://issuesetc.org/) no longer exists. (When you go to that site now, all you see is a plain text "Issues, Etc. is no longer available.")

4.) Yesterday, the producer of Issues, Etc. (Mr. Jeff Schwarz) and the show's host (Rev. Todd Wilken) were both informed yesterday morning that they no longer had KFUO jobs and were escorted out of the building.

5.) Neither they nor anyone else seems to have been given a clear answer about why this happened when they asked.


...There. I avoided all my potential conspiracy theories and stated only the facts I know. You're proud of me, right? ..I'll come back and post more later today.

A correction to 4.)
The show's producer was Jeff Schwarz. He is a laymen and not ordained clergy.
