Dian described having had a sexual relationship with Bob Barker, and that how after the sexual relationship was over, Barker fired her. (Again, nothing voluntary about that.)
So think about it. How are TPTB going to spin Dian's sudden departure? Would they tell the truth? i.e. "Well, Bob was boffing Dian and after it was over he fired her."? (Not really good for the show slash Bob's image.)
So instead there was a 20second on-air make-nice parting, and then Dian was gone. And the spin became "Dian voluntarily left the show."[/quote]
Then why'd Dian agree to it?

It's all about image, I suppose. Dian had no beef against anyone but Barker, did she? If she didn't, then I suppose someone/a group of people coaxed her to do this, purely for the appearance of the thing?
