GLAAD are practically a terrorist organization, of the cultural variety. Kind of like FFR Foundation and the SPLC.
They hate “profit” because it reveals what is supported by the people and what is not.

He didn’t ‘praise’ Jim Crow laws - he said blacks weren’t miserable. And that’s true. Ask anyone in the early days of the civil rights movement how difficult it was to get everyday blacks involved. Back then most blacks were like whites today - they had jobs to go to and families to support... A fair share of them were pretty conservative - - one of the reasons for ‘community organizers’ - people to get them out of their homes on on to the streets to protest.
Definitely about profits. A&E is a business after all, in a declining market, and needs to do what it has to. Despite this, I still believe that they are intolerant idiots and weasels.
So...if the network had chosen African Americans and gay people instead, then Duck Dynasty would be off the air, and the millions who watch it would no longer be able to watch it, all to make "African Americans and gays" happy. Does it not occur to them that demanding things be taken from others will make them hated?! These people push their weight around and then wonder why there is "prejudice, racism and homophobia" against them.
If K-Mart/JC Penney, etc., had made similar decisions, they wouldn’t be in the same bind. They opted to follow the sinking ship of homosexual worship/minority catering to the bottom. A&E saw the light of that business model’s flaws (as did Cracker Barrel). Kodak started its death spiral when it decided to “modernize” in all things PC and neglected staying up with technological trends.
