Bumping because CBS is now hitting back:

This can apparently be traced back to an attempt by Sony to buy back the distribution rights to WOF and Jeopardy for over a billion dollars earlier this year:

Capitalism, I guess. I hope the shows survive.

Why would they not survive. Surely they make enough money that the right people would line up in order to produce and distribute the show.
