Coast to Coast "pulls it" after Dr. Kevin Barrett query

Coast to Coast AM, the internationally syndicated radio show and top late night ratings winner, has inexplicably "pulled it"- they cancelled an announced and publicized scheduled radio interview with conspiracy skeptic Dr. Michael J. Wood after Dr. Kevin Barrett asked for a chance to respond. It's important to note that Dr. Wood, a defender of the establishment line, was specifically invited on the program to discuss Dr. Barrett's article, s noted in the Coast to Coast announcement [screenshot below.]. The coast to coast announcement stated
"First Hour: A story by Kevin Barrett on PressTV.ir has interpreted a study as showing that conspiracists are "more sane" than conventionalists. However, that's not correct according to one of the study's authors, Mike Wood, from the School of Psychology at the University of Kent, Canterbury, U.K., who joins George Knapp to discuss the findings of his research. Further guest info, TBA."
But when Dr. Barrett contacted Coast to Coast requesting an opportunity to respond, Coast to Coast scrapped the entire program and instead ran a segment on whales and dolphins at the last minute! It's also noteworthy that Coast to Coast, while referring to Barrett's article on their website, neglected to even link to it. ***Read article at LIBERTY FIGHT***
