Web News: G4 Axes 'Call For Help' and Leo Laporte
Its a sad, sad day.
After a great 6 year run, Call For Help was given the axe on Friday, much to the chagrin of so many n00bs and moms and grandfathers and kids and just plain folks for whom Call for Help was an introduction to technology.

Yesterday was one of the saddest days of my life. We put Call for Help to bed Wednesday. You'll see the last episode on Friday, but for those of us who have been making the show for six years a huge and important chunk of our lives is over.
G4 is shopping the show and it's possible another network will pick it up. I pray someone does. I'll keep doing it if I have to fly to Sandusky twice a week. Vinnie Longobardo, the VP Programming for G4, also asked me to ask you to stop filling his inbox with mail. I appreciate your efforts but at this point it's probably useless to keep harassing the poor guy. G4 is going for a different audience and my work is not really part of those plans
