“Phil wanted to leave. He probably made a deal with A&E to let him leave and they both came up with this. OR A&E wouldn’t allow Phil out of the contract so he did this on purpose.”
Then each of the other members should go public and say the exact same thing. If I do see a response by the rest of the family in some way refusing to continue with the show. Then they are all a fraud.
We have to support the DD and shows like this. We cannot back down. There are just a small number of people who are causing this stir. The media is spurring this on.
On principal. Ironically, A&E just emailed me regarding a "Free Shipping" Promotion. It had a respond to this email with a question. So I filled it out expressing to them that the First Amendment is the most important Freedom given to us under the Constitution.
I can still support Duck Commander products. They sell them at Bass Pro Shop, Walmart, DC is also coming out with a wine. I just don't want to give a penny to A&E.
This double standard is out of control. For far too long we've been oppressed by a small minority who claim to be champions of Free Speech but wish to shut any conservative up. Look how many smear groups have attacked this very website?
I'm sick of the left getting away with this over and over again. The gay mafia makes up what 1 - 3 percent of the US population and get to ruin lives at will? I'm sick and have had it with them.
ESADA&E
Just caught a glimpse of the Dynasty family (minus Phil, he was duck hunting) on Barbara Walter special...(this was recently taped, I think)...
She was gushing all over them...
..tomorrow, no doubt, she will say she fully agrees with A & E's decision to fire Phil.
Wait....for....it
Commercials that just came on during DD Marathon break:
Home Depot
Jared jewelry
Cabellas
Hardees and Carl Jr
Grand theft auto
Del Monte
Verizon
Honda
X Box
Let them hear from you. I guarantee you, the other 2-10% of the population who are offended by someone’s 1st Am. rights will be contacting them also.
A+E has made it quite easy for the family members to cancel the show. Every member just has to make the same kinds of comments and there will be no show.
Napcoordinator was only speculating.....he has no idea.
Not. A&E can't take their (already successful) business from them.
About all they can do is kill the show and (probably) screw the family out of any proceeds from merchandise sales and/or residuals from show re-runs.
The Robertson family will be just fine.
Good point
Looks like it's happening, Carbonite times 1000.
She’ll so it....”reluctantly”......while faking tears......
Oops, do not so
See my recent comments as to the easy solution for the rest of the family to either get out of the show, or force A&E to stop there nonsense.
They can say anything they want. They can even get married on Rose Bowl Parade floats. But the conservative Christian can’t say anything.
A&E says the statement does not reflect their beliefs. First of all, who is “they”? Second, Phil wasn’t talking on your network.
It’s amazing how much corporate America will bow down to such small minorities.
I just spent the last 45 minutes posting advertising’s email addresses all over the web. Hit their advertisers A&E is also both History channels, Lifetime and a couple others, stop watching them and let them know how you feel. I sure will miss Longmire.
Duck Dynasty is finished fliming for the season and I am sure they are looking for a new home. Plenty of people are lighting up boards all over the web.
Hey!
They should just put the show on The Blaze, boy would that get viewership up.
Somebody tell Beck.
DeCrappio? LOL.
He’s so overrated it isn’t funny.
All they have to do is say pretty much the same thing in interviews with magazines or Fox.
