The network owes no one an explanation as to their motivations for doing so. There is no difference in what TV Land did and what Wal-Mart did.
Not true they said they weren't going to license the General Lee products. They are taking sides. They have gave every indication they are banning the show over the flag on the General Lee. And I never said there was a difference between what Viacom did and what Walmart did. They are both progressive corporations pushing a progressive agenda, and taking sides.

With a minimal revenue stream by now, this was a convenient way to bow out.

Great! Now about those blatantly racist black shows like the Jeffersons and Good Times where they call white people "honky" and other examples of racism I wont even get into here. When will those be pulled from TV Land?

They have given no indication to their motivations what so ever. You're assuming that they've made the choice from a political stance and not a monetary one. Show me where someone from the network has said anything alluding to this.

Wal-Mart a progressive corporation????.......haha hahaha hahaha

How about never since they don't run them. The network is as white bread as you could ever hope for.

Why not? FOX News airs a number of racist shows.

And Sharpton is a moron.

No Warner Bros said they would licenses General Lee products unless the flag was removed,



'Dukes of Hazzard' Star Rips TV Land for Dropping Show

Quote:
Warner Bros. said it would no longer license models of the Dukes of Hazzard car, known as the General Lee, unless the licensees stripped the Confederate flag from the car’s roof
It's clear to everyone that this all just progressive corporations doing knee jerk reactions over the flag. They're taking sides.
