After they suspended him, there was a much bigger outcry from other groups such as conservative groups. A&E got about 10x more complaints over the suspension than over the comments Robertson made in the interview. A&E was threatened with boycotts over the suspension. So they decided to reverse their decision.

I think both decisions were about money.
