We should still keep the pressure on A&E and all their fellow PC-nazi travelers. They backed down because Robertson in wealthy. Let’s not forget what the GLAAD-type fascists are trying to do to bakers, photographers and churches who won’t go along with them.
“... We will also use this moment to launch a national public service campaign (PSA) promoting unity, tolerance and acceptance among all people, a message that supports our core values as a company, and the values found in Duck Dynasty. These PSAs will air across our entire portfolio.”
... because we think the majority of our viewers are racist-sexist-homophobes who need sensitivity training.
If A and E is so concerned about tolerance, why no tolerance for the views of Christians?
I truly don’t understand.
The left seems to say, “Everyone must have tolerance and acceptance for our views, but we will not even consider being tolerant of the views of others.”
Welcomes? My butt! They begrudgingly changed their minds after the huge display of support for Phil and negative emails from A&E viewers.
The irony of trying to use ‘tolerance’ to silence those who disagree.

Well, at least we finally know how long “indefinitely” is: nine days. A&E should be nominated for a Fields Medal for finally resolving this age old puzzle.
The power of the wallet is a power indeed...
I don’t doubt Phil’s sincerity, but I do believe this whole thing was relished on both sides for what it would do to the bottom line.
he and his family have publicly stated they regret the “coarse language” he used ....

They caved...
Phil should have had somebody with him at the interview from A&E. Absent that, the network should have kept its comments between them and Phil.
A&E did what they did because some small number of people (it could have been as low as 1) might have been offended by what Phil had to say. What they did was wrong because Phil had the right to express his opinion (1st Amendment Right) and whether they agree or not, they should have kept it to themselves. This was all a veiled publicity campaign that went off the rails quickly because of the way A&E objected to Phil’s comments. I hope that the Robertson family runs out the contract they have with A&E and goes to another network as quickly as possible.
What a fol ‘welcome back’. Wold they have their show shrouded in horrible PSA adverts?
You know, I was kinda hoping the old guy would have told them to go suck his “duck”...

A&E’s PC Executives hew the bottom line, as in: “Oh Mr. Robertson, we accept everything you have ever said or thought in your entire life.”
