I don't think this is a racial thing. Did you even read the article? WGN got bought out and the company that bought WGN is into a news and reality tv channel. All of WGN's sitcoms got cancelled, including the Outsiders, not just the black one. For months now the new CEO has been whining and this is a direct quote:

“The ratings WGN America (delivers) doesn’t justify the type of spending they do on the original programming side. The channel could be run much more profitably on a fraction of what they spend on programming.”
