The ABC article sights "Cracker Barrel's reversal of its former position was posted this morning to Facebook, following a flurry of negative responses from customers and fans who showed support to the patriarch of the "Duck Dynasty" family." That's kind of like saying the Rodney King LA riots represented a "flurry" of discontent regarding the verdict in the trial of the officers involved.
From the tone of the article, ABC seems to be tying itself into knots - trying to placate the GLAAD types while reluctantly acknowledging the truth, which is their side has been maneuvered into a lose/lose situation and have been outplayed by a 67 year old duck hunting "redneck", former LSU quarterback (...with a masters degree and a boatload of money.)
ABC is not happy, happy, happy.
