I'm waiting for the headlines "Douglas is Cancelled is Cancelled"

If only, but sadly there are enough people out there who want this kind of content, many tv execs among them (I don't doubt for a minute that many of them see themselves as "Douglas" - the potential victims of "the woke agenda" and feel it's their mission to "educate" the public on why cancelling bigots is the worst thing happening in the world today). It's basically a self portrait of those in charge..
