“After the meeting, GLAAD issued its statement on Robertson’s comments. A&E initially released a statement from Robertson in which he said he would “never treat anyone with disrespect just because they are different from me.” But the network declined to comment itself until Wednesday night, when it announced the suspension, which GLAAD applauded.
“We believe the next step is to use this as an opportunity for Phil to sit down with gay families in Louisiana and learn about their lives and the values they share,” the spokesman said.
The organization is also currently researching companies who use Robertson as a spokesperson.
“Silence is agreement in this case,” he said. “With such egregious anti-gay and racist comments, those companies that choose to be affiliated with this family need to speak out.”

An opportunity for Phil to sit down with gay families to discuss their lives and the values they share????
1.not an opportunity for Phil,opportunity for GLAAD
2.they share no values
So this would be some sort of an ‘intervention’ for Phil I assume.
Perhaps the ‘gay families of lousiana’ along with GLAAD reps.would be open to a Sunday church service with the Robertson family for some real value sharing.
Of course that would never happen, libs aren’t interested in ‘sharing’ ANYTHING besides other people’s money
