Duck Dynasty Might Be Over

BS.

 

I watch very little television, so I don't know much about Fox. Most of what I've seen of Fox suggests that it's a republican mouthpiece. I'm not aware of their being a huge amount of content on Fox that is racist/sexist/homophobic (or really any), nor does it seem that criticism of political correctness has more than a passing presence. They primarily seem to be anti-democrat, anti-obama, anti-tax, anti-obamacare, which seems to be the primary agenda of the republican party.

The existence of one pro-republican media corporation does little to remedy the fact that there is a media cartel in the united states.

I'm skeptical that you would be equally satisfied with the status quo if your own views were less represented.

 

They have more $$ than a&e as it is and made the network more as well as them. I hope they tell them fuck you and go to a different one like all the other good shows did/do.

No sponsors have dropped them, That count anyway. Only a handful of idiots think they are in the wrong and mostly libtards. Either way, They can sit back and laugh, When the suspended phil that breached the contract and a&e will have to pay the difference. Its a loose/loose for the limp channel.

 

I'll take your comment seriously if you care to substantiate it.

 

retarded show,,id be glad when its gone

 

They may be rich, but I'm willing to bet that AE has better jews in it's court and will survive whatever is tossed at them.

(I'm mocking the media conspiracy dude here, not really trying to be racist)

 

Ok, maybe a little racist but I reserve a little right when it comes to the power of Moses. When he took over our local news station he actually printed the new rules on mock tablets. I'm sure he can take a jew joke.

Seriously. He may be 'retired' but I'm gonna put my money on Moses who's been playing the game longer than duck dude.

 

My bad. I could have sworn AE was a moses channel

 

Ill have to catch it on TVLAND, in say 20yrs..

 

AE can have all the 'jews' It wants. Fact remains that ae breached a contract, So these so called hillbillys will end up with a large chunk of $$ along with all lost wages from it.

They were rich long before ae came around, They didn't just show up and throw some fat guys calls and money. They have been doing this for many years and the network is making money off them, Along with their face(s) plastered everywhere to boost their income aside from the contract.

 

Anyone who supports this man and his views can go die in a fire.

"They’re full of murder, envy, strife, hatred.*They are insolent, arrogant, god haters, they are heartless, they are faithless, they are senseless, they are ruthless, they invent ways of doing evil.”

 

I wonder if Snooki or The Situation ever got banned from thier own show for saying or doing something stupid or offensive. The whole point of the show is to be stupid. Is anybody being banned from: Mob Wives ? One of The Wives was just arrested, will she be banned?

Our society conjours up these Frogs for our entertainment, we suppose we are horified by the warts

 

I believe the jersey shore folk had a run in with some clothing companies.

 

Who the fuck are those people? They have a TV show? How do their lives affect anyone? Maybe I should read some posts. Nahhhhh.

 

I have had to listen to the DD program in the background at work when I am on night shift so I didn't know much about it. I just finished trying to watch a whole episode:
http://www.aetv.com/duck-dynasty/video/o-little-town-of-west-monroe

I literally had to stop watching a little over 10 minutes in. I can see that this show is geared toward a certain audience but I guess there can be entertainment value for any audience...I guess - I also get a laugh from whoopie cushions in certain situations.

That being said, the entertainment business has historically fought censorship to bring to viewers what they want to see and hear. Yes they occasionally give in to certain groups and set limits for themselves, but how can they fire someone for expressing their opinion?
Who has a right to tell a human being that they have no right to open their mouth and say what they believe?

Yes the views of this man are backward, ignorant, closed minded etc..., but to fire him is censorship. The audience that A&E is trying to reach with this family of whatever they are, likely identify with them and have like opinions even if they don't express those opinions on the show.

I agree with what Mama said, A&E can state that his views do not represent theirs and let it go at that. Yes it is perfectly legal for them to fire him and at the same time it is perfectly legal for my boss to fire me for making statements that are not in alignment with their views. That still does not make it right. It is still censorship.

Maybe A&E should give the DD people an opportunity to meet some people from the groups that the old guy ranted about and get to know them. That would be a good episode, it might change their views and some of their audience's as well.

That's just my opinion and along with that I still think it is all publicity as I stated in my earlier post.

 

Ya, A&E is pimping this redneck, now they want to fire him for being himself.


They fired Charlie Sheen for being himself.

 

You keep saying that, as if someone is arguing otherwise.

I agree 100%
