I thought that was interesting too. I'm not sure I believe it though. It seems more likely to me that they made up this story after they were kicked off.

And it worked out great for them to be kicked off: they were able to rehost quickly, got a lot of publicity, and a lot of people who care more about free speech than the specifics of cables are now more energized. EDIT: I was surprised to see the parent downvoted (although it's since recovered). Maybe he's right, maybe not, but it's certainly worth discussing -- so the comment adds value to the discussion.
