Neither, they are going to milk this controversy for all it's worth. A&E knew his views on things before going into this deal. Well, maybe not his REALLY abhorrent views on the Jim Crow era, but they knew his strong evangelical outlook on life. The people out there who agree with his bigoted and distasteful statements are going to buy all of the DD merchandise they can carry out of Wal-Mart and sit through hours of the show in some futile effort to stick it to those evil PC libs at A&E. And those evil PC libs will laugh all the way to the bank.
Don't think that the A&E marketing department didn't learn from Chik-fil-A. They're going to use the bigotry of their viewers to make a fortune before the flash in the pan brand dies out on it's on.
Thanks, but I'll just go directly to the Duck Commander website.
I am not bigoted not ignorant, thanks for saying I am lol You may be educated, which I'm doubtful, because of your accusations. An educated person would never do that. Where in the south are you from
I was born and raised in deep South Louisiana until I was 17, I moved to the Houston area 24+ years ago to attend college and I live North of Houston still today with my family. I have a MS in EE and a BS in bio-medical eng. You can be "doubtful" of whatever you like, I'm sure you've been wrong enough times that you'll survive.
The things you said were bigoted and quite ignorant, don't get mad at me for pointing out the facts.

I am not mad but perplexed because you seem to think you are better than I am which you are not. You are rude and judgmental. You can have all the degrees you want but that does not make you superior over anyone

Who said anything about being better than you? I don't make bigoted ignorant comments like you do, aside from that I'm not "better" than you in any way. I'm just an average guy who speaks the truth, something you clearly dislike.

I made no ignorant comments. I just know the south, sorry.

Sweetie, what you posted below is the epitome of an ignorant comment. You apparently don't know the South as well as you claim, maybe it's just you and not the other people from the South who need an education.

They can easily find themselves another southern redneck family to put in a show. They are a dime a dozen in most of the continental US.
The Robertson family had a successful show before A&E ever came into the picture, they'll find another network to work with a lot faster than A&E could ever replace them.
It will be interesting to see what they do when re-runs are going to be shown now and they have already taped the new season.
They've been airing episodes for the last 2 or 3 days that still have Phil in them everywhere, it doesn't seem to bother them at all.
