Unless something has changed in the last month, they are no longer on TV in Japan as FujiTV dropped them in June. Combine that with the recent contract squabbles (Silva, CroCop) and the apparently renewed relations with the UFC has understandably made many thought that Pride is not quite as stable as just earlier this year. They are certainly not in complete crisis, but I'm sure they are concerned.
