Ironically, due to a “morals” clause in the contractual obligations the entire family may HAVE to continue to do the show, lest they suffer serious financial impacts and legal proceedings that may involve the network having control over the “Duck Dynasty” title, and other commercial marketing material, and keep the family from profitting on those goods and services due to those contractual agreements...

Stevie, the family was already financially successful before A&E came calling. After two years of what amounts to free advertising, I'm sure their business is doing record breaking business.

I honestly don't think they'd have a problem standing on their principles and loyalty to the patriarch of their family in this situation. I think they'll walk away together if A&E stands their ground.

That is a possibility, but still, the details in the contract with the network could keep them from profiting from the name of the products and services that the show (which the network owns) espouses...

I do believe you are right...The family needs to step up together and tell A+E to go shove it...Just walk...

Meanwhile, people like Bushear, and other media celebrity notorieties seem to be given a pass when they attack conservative and Christian values these days...

There certainly is a double standard in play here, and by not patronizing them, you may eventually impact them where it really hurts...
