A&E has placed Duck Dynasty patriarch Phil Robertson on indefinite hiatus following anti-gay remarks he made in a recent profile in GQ.
"We are extremely disappointed to have read Phil Robertson’s comments in GQ, which are based on his own personal beliefs and are not reflected in the series Duck Dynasty," A&E said in a statement. "His personal views in no way reflect those of A+E Networks, who have always been strong supporters and champions of the LGBT community. The network has placed Phil under hiatus from filming indefinitely."

Meanwhile A&E doesn’t think Rodeo Sluts is offensive
I would be very surprised to see the show continue taping after this A&E response.
I have just placed A&E on a permanent hiatus.

He wanted to leave. This is staged folks.
Why was he giving an interview to metrosexual GQ, anyway?
Don’t throw your dollars at A&E.
If they need the familys permission to run reruns or syndicate it, lol...
How do we contact A&E....? anyone have a email link?
Heartwarming to see most comments on the site are denouncing the thought police.
Blowback, when it comes, will be epic.
Robertson is taking a stand for the younger generation. Any thirteen year old knows that when an individual promotes
sexual perversion, it’s just one person. But when a society promotes sexual perversion, has it coming from every direction, it has a completely different, and ultimately fatal, impact.
Come on A & E. Show us what the homosexuals do to earn their name. They all talk about it, but nobody wants to think about it.
Season 5 is already filmed for next year. Willie better make sure there is no season six for AE.
Is A & E now a Fag Network?
If so, that will make it real easy to boycott that entire channel, 24/7/365.25.
Heroin addict scumbag star of Glee gets heaps of praise for being a depraved loser.
This guy is tarred for stating a Biblical opinion held by over 80% of the world.
Topsy Turvy!
It doesn’t say a thing about it being staged.
I think they’ll [the TV network] have problem with this. Even people on Liberal sites agreed gay sex is icky!
And DD viewers [there are a lot of them], agree with Phil.
Maybe some other network will pick them up... I would approach EWTN.
