According to Reuters<\/em><\/a>, Lawmakers want to know if the show’s coverage and criticism of China has anything to do with the show\u2019s cancellation. The government officials have asked Apple to speak on the issue by December 15.<\/p>\n

In a letter to the company, the House members wrote that while Apple has the right to determine what content it deems appropriate for its platform, \u201cthe coercive tactics of a foreign power should not be directly or indirectly influencing these determinations.\u201d This effort is bipartisan, with members from both Republican and Democratic parties affiliated with the House of Representatives’ Select Committee on Competition with the Chinese Communist Party<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Roughly 19 percent of Apple sales come from China, with over $72.5 billion in net sales reported for the <\/a>company\u2019s fiscal 2023, which closed in September. It might make sense that the company would avoid streaming a show with strong political opinions that could impact its bottom line in such a significant way. But the show discussed several hot-button topics, including artificial intelligence and gun control. According to the New York Times<\/em><\/a>, sources familiar with the matter said that, beyond discussions about China, the show\u2019s criticism of topics like artificial intelligence played a role in the decision to cut the show.<\/p>\n
