Oh, the GLAAD Butt-Hurt! The most popular family in America could not be defeated by the Sensitivity Outrage Brigades:
Phil Robertson, the patriarch of A&E’s Duck Dynasty clan who was suspended from his hit reality series on Dec. 18 following some incendiary comments about gay people, won’t be put on hiatus after all.
The network and the Robertson family announced Friday that Phil will still be part of the series — and since he didn’t miss any filming, his temporary suspension will have no effect on the upcoming fifth season.
Fact: The “Duck Dynasty” audience is about 10 times larger than the combined audience of CNN and MSNBC.
More at Memeorandum, including commentary by Twitchy, Weasel Zippers, The Daily Caller and NewsBusters.
UPDATE: In case you were wondering about those ratings. The Season 4 premiere of “Duck Dynasty” in August drew 11.8 million viewers, making it the most-watched reality-show episode in cable TV history. Meanwhile, in the 8 p.m. hour on Thursday, Dec. 19, CNN drew 528,000 viewers and MSNBC got 699,000 viewers, for a combined total of slightly more than 1.2 million viewers.

December 28th, 2013 @ 4:30 pm
The thing is, I disagree with the Duck guy (and Old Testament views of gays, pork and witchcraft). But as with the gun control nuttiness last year, the left’s deranged overreaction makes me defend those people and positions I wouldn’t, ordinarily.

I think the whole thing about the rednecks is pretty funny. I live right in the midst of prime redneck real estate, so watching that show would be like watching my own community on cable access channel 3027. Really, really boring.
But the nation tuned in to watch a bunch of Beverly Hillbillies and found out that real rednecks aren’t stupid like the Hillbillies on TV. As Larry the Cable Guy says, “Everyone makes fun of rednecks until their car stops working.”
December 28th, 2013 @ 6:25 pm
“Old Testament views on gays….”
Your kidding, right?
December 28th, 2013 @ 7:13 pm
Gay rights is being pushed as equivalent to civil rights. No church in America is allowed to discriminate due to race. Soon no church will be allowed to discriminate against due to sexual orientation. Although I appreciate you and others standing with the churches, don’t count on SCOTUS to uphold the First.
December 28th, 2013 @ 7:55 pm
I’m not sad about GLAAD. I’m insanely fucking happy, which means I’m just being myself, erupting with previously unseen levels of insanely bigoted happiness. (The Real Dan Savage should not be confused with @FakeDanSavage, who’s the real real Dan Savage.) https://realdansavage.wordpress.com/

You know that in the UK Christians can no longer be foster parents unless they forsake their healthy religious views in favor of the homosexuality agenda? I see no outcry.
http://alessandrareflections.wordpress.com/2013/11/16/two-legal-cases-about-persecution-of-christians-and-a-major-unanswered-question/
There will be no outcry when Christianity/Bible is declared hate speech in a few years.
December 29th, 2013 @ 12:55 am
it seems the extorsion was for GLAAD to use A&E as its platform -> the new announced “PSA” campaign:GLAAD propaganda for free.
In other words, they will shove homosexuality as normal as dictated by GLAAD 24/7 on the network for free. Aside from any money donations…

December 30th, 2013 @ 12:13 am
More importantly Duck Dynasty had much better ratings.
December 30th, 2013 @ 12:20 am
I think the original plan from A&E was for Duck Dynasty to be just another stupid rednecks behaving badly show, like many others out there. Then they were surprised that so much of America ended up liking the Robertsons, because they were authentic, had good values, and in their own way were pretty smart, and had great senses of humor.
January 3rd, 2014 @ 9:45 am
You’re assuming that we aren’t hearing from GLAAD every ten minutes because GLAAD lost. It is possible that they could still make trouble for A&E, but aren’t because they were paid off.
Many of these grievance organizations have no actual interest in changing anything. It’s more a protection racket, and the point is to shake down cowardly organizations that cannot take a little heat.
And I think we can all agree that A&E is pretty cowardly.
