The Austrian show Gute Nacht Österreich. It was the same concept as Last Week Tonight or the Late Show. Well, they did a show about then right wing populist Chancellor Sebastian Kurz' networks and connections. The topic of the show had been announced a day before, but they had suddenly shown a different one, apparently due to pressure from the upper management of the public broadcast.
Only due to massive public pressure could they show it the following week and afterwards their show mysteriously didn't get renewed due to budget cuts, despite being very popular.
They had only come back later after Kurz was ousted because of a corruption scandal
