After Dr. Drew expressed his serious concern for the health of Democratic candidate Hillary Clinton after reviewing the health records she released CNN canceled his primetime show that has been going for years.
Ken Jautz, CNN executive vp announced without warning that Dr. Drew On Call would no longer be running, and that it’s 5 year go was to come to an end next month.
“Dr. Drew and I have mutually agreed to air the final episode of his show on September 22,” Jautz released in a statement. “Dr. Drew and his team have delivered more than five years of creative shows and I want to thank them for their hard work and distinctive programming.”
Jautz went on to say: “Their audience-driven shows, in particular, were innovative and memorable TV. And Dr. Drew has been an authoritative voice on addiction and on many other topical issues facing America today.”
“It has been a privilege working at HLN,” Drew recounted. “My executive producer Burt Dubrow and our outstanding staff and contributors were consistently exceptional. I am very excited to stay within the CNN Worldwide family as a contributor.”
According to Western Journalism,
HLN, which is operated by CNN, is reportedly rebooting its entire primetime lineup. However, the sudden announcement is conspicuous for some, considering Pinsky grabbed headlines a week ago for expressing concerns over Clinton’s ability to serve as president.
Pinsky appeared on KABC’s McIntyre in the Morning show on Tuesday Aug. 16, where he was asked to debunk theories about Clinton’s health.
Instead, Dr. Drew broke rank with his mainstream media colleagues — who have been anxiously attempting to sweep such questions under the rug — when he gave an assessment of the presidential nominee that seemed to validate concerns raised by GOP nominee Donald Trump and others.
Pinsky explained that he and his colleague, Dr. Robert Huizenga, also shared concerns about Clinton’s overall health, but also shared opinions about the quality medical care she has been receiving.
According to Drew, “Both of us concluded that if we were providing the care she was receiving, we would be ashamed to show up in a doctors’ lounge. We would be laughed out. She’s receiving sort of 1950s-level care by our evaluation.”
They have since taken down the broadcast, however you can listen to the full recording with the video above.
Since Thursday CNN has spent the majority of Thursday morning speculation on Trump’s health.
Following that, CNN then ran a story online titled: “Clinton’s health is fine, but what about Trump?”
