just removed an unsubstantiated rumor about the cancellation of BattleBots from the article. It read: 

 * "The termination was also due to a law suit between Battlebots Inc. and Budweiser, in which Budweiser unfairly used Battlebots video footage in a commercial without credit given towards the company. During the suit, Budweiser turned to Comedy Central and gave them the ultimatum of either Battlebots is taken off the air or Budweiser removes all sponsorships and advertising from the network. Because of the amount of money given in the form of sponsorships and advertising, Comedy Central took Battlebots off the air." 

 Budweiser did not use BattleBots footage in their robot fighting commercial, and there has never been any corroboration of a threat to Comedy Central. BattleBots did file suit over the commercial which aired during the 2002 Superbowl. The suit was dismissed by the court in 2004 as being a fair-use parody  two years after BattleBots went off the air. This rumor pops up from time to time, but it has no basis in fact.
