I have no clue what the real story is.

I doubt the radio stations give a damn if an artist is a diva such as what Mark aluded to. Radio stations play all kinds of difficult personality and and hard to work with people so their reputation is irrelevant in this case.

On the other hand there were boycott campaigns galore so maybe that had somewhat to do with it.

And it wouldn't suprise me if Barry is right and there was political pressure put on them to get boycotted.

Just my thoughts.
