Why and when did CBS 2 cancel "Special Assignment"?

The Sunday 6:30 program "Special Assignment," which I personally liked to watch and was a good lead-in to 60 Minutes, was dropped when Paul Magers came aboard in favor of the much broader topic Studio 2 (which I believe has since been shelved). Special Assignments stopped airing on the regular newscasts not long after that, though I do not recall exactly when.

Budget cuts, which also drove Joel Grover to Channel 4. Once Grover left, the program lost its momentum. Joel Grover and his producers are some of the most dogged investigative reporters in this market, which has never placed a premium on investigative reports.
