At first they tried to stop the praying at the table.  They wanted him silenced.  this was a set up and Phil knew it and went along.  That hick as he has been called turned down professional football, kept Terry Bradhsaw on the bench in college.  he is a multi millionaire before this show.  he has an MBA and built a business even though the moron in the white house says that is impossible. Hick I very much disagree.  Smart savvy and knows what the public wants to see umm yeah.  Does he need them?  Not now not ever.  A lesson about sticking to your principles morals and values could be learned here.  I love the I do not like the show and it should be cancelled except the shows the same values the govt does today.  We do not like what you like so take it away.  I watch the show for the entertainment value not the reality part because there is no reality to it.  I will not watch it now for sure.

Dude, I don't think for a moment A&E thinks he does not have the right to speak about his opinions.

They simply don't want to be associated with it, and let him go. When you enter the entertainment industry-- and make no doubt, that is what this is-- you sometimes have to sign agreements that for the duration of your employment, you cannot make certain PUBLISHED remarks (remember, he didn't just say this to someone, he was published saying this, which is a whole different ballpark). Such remarks include racism and bigotry (he was quoted making some very racist remarks, too, also published).

 

They aren't sending the police after him for heaven's sakes.

They are just saying they don't want him on the show any more. Good grief.

 

I think if you look at the situation rationally, it may be a bit frustrating depending on where you stand on some issues, but it is hardly worth the rage-festivals I am seeing all over the internet the past few days.

Just curious how many have actually read the interview and no the media excerpts?

I am gonna calls it as I sees it...... being a white male in this country is the toughest thing now a days...If I speak out against anyone other than my  race and gender I am called a racist or a chauvinist pig or both.

 

Seriously?  So are telling me you would rather trade skins with another ethnicity?  The white male in this country had it so good that now that they're being knocked down a peg or two, it's the end of the world.  Cry me a river.

Its not just religion, you can't have an opinion that differs from theirs. I'm not religious at all but if someone is that's fine I respect their beliefs, just like I respect your opinion on topics that differ from my opinion. Everyone gets so offended by what people say these days its crazy. You can't say boo to a ghost these days without someone getting offended. Its this same mentality of these people that think that every kid deserves a medal for just showing up. It will be the end of the world if someone's feelings get hurt.

Don't ask a religious man what he thinks is a sin then get offended when he says homosexuals. Shocker on that thought.

I'm going to be very blunt here, but people need to understand this.  The media and entertainment industry is and has been for a LONG time run by jews and gays, who like to give blacks preferential treatment.  If you say or do ANYTHING against these three groups you will be dead meat.  Anyone entering this industry needs to know this, because you most certainly will NOT get away easy making any sort of comment against them that they don't like. 

 

There you have it.  I am surely NOT saying that this is right, but that's the way it has been for a LONG time and will not be getting better any time soon.

interestingly enough i think DD has the upper hand. I'm sure there's a contract that would force them to lose millions if the DD guys broke it. However, A&E will lose more. I'd like to see the DD guys "quit". See how quick A&E sticks to its guns then. Even if the family does lose millions. they'd be respected for it. They're not exactly poor to begin with.

Very true. A lot of people don't realize that.

Just like the general public holds police officers to a higher standard, those in the media are also held to a higher standard.  They are given tremendous amount of power.  There are enough sheep in the world that what those in media say or do can change the world.

I get a kick out of folks who think they have to point out that the show is,scripted ,fake or entertainment . Really? Who would have thunk it?

Next thing you know they'll say Gillian was not really stuck on that island !

Oh and yes Maryann was hotter then Ginger, with mrs Howell a distant 3rd.

I cant believe that everyone on here isn't disgusted with this attack on our 1st amendment rights! Everyone is up in arms about our 2nd amendment rights being under attack but many are OK with this. Whether you agree with him or not, he has a right to his opinion and everyone should respect that! I'm by no means a bible thumper, but he has a right to say what he believes in without everyone getting their panties in a bunch. People need to worry a little more about what they do and not what everyone else is doing.

Honestly I can't really see this as an attack on the 1st. Much different than what is taking place with our 2nd, the Govt. is not involved in this. We really have no idea the terms of their contracts were and, while I think it is BS what A&E did in the position I hold my words outside of work could have an impact on the company I work for in the course of my duties.

 

I think Phil knew what was going to happen. wouldn't surprise me if their lawyers weren't on this before it took place.

 

If you haven't read the article in it's entirety it is worth it. There are context issue with how the media is presenting what was said, imagine that. It wasn't stated with hate or bigotry, it was very matter of fact in the context of his faith. He doesn't understand the desire but went on in length to say it is also his faith to basically treat everyone well and let God sort it out. he views it as a sin and said so. A&E was wrong and the DD group will profit even more from this

there are 2 sides to this. As a hiring manager for a large company, I'm held to standards for diversity. Not always can I hire the best candidate and I've seen plenty of unqualified climb the ladder quicker and also qualified go higher and quicker than one would normally expect. but at the end of the day, if you're a hard worker you'll get the job you want. both sides just enjoy making excuses.

If I had to bet, I think they will all quit if he is not reinstated and apologized to.

Of the Fortune 500 companies, there are 6 blacks, 8 Asians, and 8 Latinos CEOs.  That combines to 4.4%.  But wait!  Aren't Asian suppose to be so smart and hard working?

If the media were held to a higher standard we wouldn't have a lying president. How many passes does this guy get?
