Typical “it’s everyone’s fault but mine” mentality. I used to think he was a decent guy, but excuses like this are not acceptable.

She’s your daughter, Mr. Cyrus. You could have put an end to the show and reined her in at any time.

Did he have any big problems with it when the checks were rolling in ?

It was worse than that. The way I remember it, Daddy Billy Ray was loving the attention.

He was on the show too. You would think at least being there on the set with his daughter would have allowed him to do a better job of controlling her.

I'm not making excuses for him, but in all honestly, if he would have tried to take her off the show I guarantee you the courts would have said otherwise if she pursed that avenue. Miley is going to turn into a total druggie loser like most child hood actors, it'a a shame, now he's getting divorced and so on. The truth is Hollywood is the playground of the devil and he is crouching at the door waiting to devour all who enter therein ...

The Money Quote, IMO...And I'd bet he had some folks close to him who were urging him to reign her in, but the money was too good.
