Not my decision, and I completely understand a vendor dropping their sponsorship if it doesn't make financial sense to continue. In this case that was not true, so no idea how they came to this decision.

Hopefully they don't believe other forms of media offer a better cost per (dead-center targeted) impression than Lat-g.
With the amount of fragmentation that's taken place in the traditional forms of media it's very easy to do this
and then this
Yellow pages - multiple books and who actually uses it now vs their smart phone services?
Radio - multiple stations and competing against iPods/phones/XM/CD/TV
Paper (fish wrapper) - Who reads the entire paper anymore? False/inaccurate circulation numbers. Internet sources quicker, cheaper, etc. Rate per inch $$
Direct postal mail? $$
Direct email? $$
Misc print publications? Blind folded dart throwing.
Television - which channels and how much frequency? DVR impact?
I can only guess Lat-g doesn't charge even close to what true market value is in respect to the validity of the impressions made.
