What few understand...Duck Dynasty and it’s profits....are allowing growth and income for future massive projects. If the current trend continues...A & E could buy CNN entirely (although not likely). They could establish a ownership deal over CBS within five years. Network TV is in trouble....while cable networks are re-inventing the whole trail ahead.
If I were the CEO or board over A & E....I’d take special care of Phil and the gang. There are thousands of empires to conquer over the next decade....all due to the success of this silly show (and the Amish Mafia crowd).
If I’m not mistaken, A&E is owned by Disney/ABC
