Shouldn't people be mad at A&E? They put him on hiatus. If the executives there didn't think there was anything wrong with what he said, they wouldn't have cancelled him. Instead of blaming some vague leftist conspiracy, doesn't the fault ultimately lie with A&E? They could have easily backed him up with something to the effect of "Phil's viewpoints do not reflect our own and we do not endorse them." Clearly the executives, did have a problem with what he said, and therefore acted accordingly. Blame the network IMO.
He's an employee, and therefor subject to the contract and whims of his employer. Would all the same people defending him defend a man fired from a Catholic school for supporting gay rights? No, everyone would say its cut and dry, he broke the contract, and should be fired. How is this different? What major media tv station do you see today actively trying ostracize minority groups? Pretty much any cable network is gonna do the same.
Also, who the fuck cares what this guy thinks? Oh wow you sold some duck calls and now have a trashy scripted reality tv show like the Kardashians, I'm totally going to look up to you for advice. America and its retarded cult of celebrity I guess.

oh, you have a black friend.
you couldn't possibly be racist then, despite threads like this bemoaning the end of free speech if one dares to use free speech to condemn bigotry.

I think that if Mr. Duck's show was on Fox Network he would have gotten a ratings boost from his comments but A&E has a slightly different audience base. The producers are worried about a viewer backlash aimed at their advertisers who will pull sponsorship if they don't get rid of the offender. A&E only cares about profit; not freedom of speech, not good, intelligent content, not their viewers well-being or even about their own grandmothers' health. Only $$$$$$$$. In poverty I remain...Prof.Snook

like i said, you have a black friend, thereby eliminating all possibility that you are a racist.
all the nasty and personal attacks on obama that have nothing to do with his policies are just innocent nothings.
bemoaning the condemnation of bigots as the end of free speech says nothing about you.
it's all about that black friend that we're all so sure you have.

No, I support the constitution. Yes, the left is filled with hateful, ugly lunatics. You are a prime example.

So far as I can tell, you are the only one here that does not have a black friend making you the obvious expert on race relations.

it doesn't take a genius to render an opinion on someone who:
1) joins a white supremacy group
2) speaks out against civil rights
3) defends racist newsletters
4) says obama only succeeded due to affirmative action
in case you were wondering, i am talking about you.
Would you look at this lily white, white boy go!

i have no doubt that you falsely and stupidly consider it "hateful and ugly" to condemn the actual hateful and ugly anti-gay bigotry that you side so openly propagates and supports.
I must tell you that your reading comprehension is much less that adequate. I stated quite clearly in post #72, just up the thread a little way, that I would like a nice black friend too. I had a nice black friend but he died and now I'm ready for another nice, black friend.

no, i rather enjoy being white, and all the privilege that comes with it.
you don't need to be gay to point out hateful and ugly anti-gay bigotry.
you don't need to be black to be offended when someone like you attempts to demean someone by calling them a nigga.
all that is required is a conscience and a decent moral compass.
that is something that hateful bigots like you lack.

Your black friend dies, and now you want another. Sounds like a dangerous gig. You need to offer incentives.
That's your problem UncleBuck, you've been so sheltered in the Portland area where very few blacks exist. You haven't a clue how the rest of America works. It's perfectly acceptable here in CA. to use the word "nigga" especially if you are black or part black.
Personally, I think you're trying to make yourself look and feel good in front everyone. For one thing, blacks don't need your type of help, you have no fucking idea what it means to be black or to have a black family. You're a lily white, white boy looking for praise that I promise you will not come.
