'Duck Dynasty's' Phil Robertson on Indefinite Hiatus Following Anti-Gay Remarks
hollywoodreporter.com ^ | 12-18-2013 | Lesley Goldberg

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."

Censorship is a dictate for the Mainstream Marxist Media. Bet they were pretty pissed about the praying too.

Pray America is Waking

I think they know this gig is about to run its course.

When they came out with Chia Willie and Chia Si, you just know the shark is about to jump.

YEP this “He did not say anything that would warrant this. I hope the family just stops doing the show.”

Then let another network pick-up the show that aren’t afraid of the P.C. weenies..

“...A man is no longer allowed to say he would rather have sex with a woman’s vagina than a man’s anus.....”

Yeah, it’s called ObamaSex

I think the Robertson family is probably ready to put the TV show behind them.

Email message sent stating that due to their support of the homosexual lifestyle, I will no longer watch their channel (ever) no matter what they do with Duck Dynasty.

Right or wrong, I quit FR about 2 weeks ago, but after all of these years and having made over 34,000 posts, I found myself lurking today…. and I simply couldn’t pass this one up.

Damn these homosexual loving perverts to hell. I may very well cancel my subscription to DIRECTV over this.

I began watching Duck Dynasty just a few weeks ago. I find it amusing and usually good for a laugh or two. It has become very difficult to find anything worth watching anymore…. I think it’s time for me to move on with this too.

Our country has gone to hell….

Signing off….. Merry Christmas to all.

So it’s only Phil, not the rest of his family. A&E apparently knows they have a hit hence they didn’t yank the plug on the whole series.

I’ve only seen a couple of episodes myself(not really into “Reality TV” myself) but I would hope the rest of the family would show solidarity with their patriarch.

Just hearing that a response about this is on The Kelly Files tonight.

I hope that Phil doesn’t apologize. I also hope the family walks in support of him.

Yep. Time to just tell A&E to pound sand. I hope the temptation of the money doesn’t change this at all.

I did not start reading the comments until I saw your post. Heartwarming indeed! I bet the comments are 100 to 1 in support of Phil. Bad move, A&E, bad move.

So much for tolerance. As usual the left has a different dictionary. To them tolerance means acceptance, in the true dictionary it means noninterference.

The world is now expected to celebrate homosexuality as if were natural and normal.

He should do it right. “If this offended any sick, demented homos or networks that find something sexually appealing with a man’s anus.... I apologize.”

LOL! I’m kinda thinkin’ they may have stirred up the wrong hornet nest on this one. Now if the bravo channel had suspended him for his remarks, I could see that happening. All gay all the time on bravo.

I guess that’s what it’s come to in the ObamaNation. Disgusting.

Joe Cairo asks..."what's wrong with that?"
