Did Dr. Phil Pull The Show?

Homeschooling
It appears that Great School Debate on the Dr. Phil show may not be airing on October 27. (The show was a hack job on homeschooling.) I was preparing a post and wanted to include a link to the site. However, the scheduled show is no longer the Great School Debate but the New Orleans Scam? about Hurricane Katrina. Maybe Kristen's story and Charles Lowers article got to the good doctor and he's feeling a little under the weather.
Anyone know more?
I received an email from guest, Carrie Lynn telling me about her experience. She was planning a rebuttal in Orlando this week. (Take a few minutes to read the story that landed her a spot on the show.)
From the comments Carrie Lynn said,
I was told the show was tentatively scheduled for Friday, October 27 and that if it changed they would call and tell me. They have not called, and "The Great School Debate" is not listed as the show on the 27th. I highly doubt the show was cancelled completely... though I do hope it was!(HT: Tammy for the link to Kristen's story.)
Update: Valerie offers some commentary on Dr. Phil and TV talk shows here.

Thanks for the links. I am sharing them with my family that lives on every word that comes out of his mouth. You think they would have figured it out when he started writing diet books and he needs to lose some weight himself! One person told me that Dr. Phil always trys to show both sides of the story and that they just could not see him doing that. Well how do they know if he is showing both sides??! They are brainwashed. This is why I don't watch tv. It is evil and decieving. I think you should just believe the opposite of whatever they say. I am not just saying that to be funny either. There is not free speech. Just free brainwashing, biased, paid advertising.
