You can argue the cultural changes and political changes of government caused Disney to make a decision out of an abundance of caution - but there was no effort, no phone call, no threat of retaliation to Disney if they chose to air that episode. This is not the same as the Kimmel situation.
No, it's not. While Disney refuses to be transparent, I'm sure the audience for Win or Lose was far lower than Kimmel's 2m per episode
However
The lack of action with WoL was partially caused by the political influence. A systemic issue permeates every aspect of life.
