Phil was not wrong for what he said, they ask his opinion and he gave it, and A&E has the right to fire him if the see fit. However, that being said , the troubling fact about this whole incident is that I think it was a publicity stunt to energize the fan base and create buzz and curiosity among those who have never seen the show. I suspect that the opening show of next season will sport ratings that are 'out of the park'. It is a fake show about yuppies who grew beards to take on the 'redneck' persona, and suck in true believers. Why anyone cares that much about a TV show is beyond me. Same thing happened with Dog the Bounty hunter on A&E...He dropped the N bomb, was in the news and "in hot water", then back on the air. Its a TV show, their job is to generate ratings and make money. I also dont see how just about 5 yrs ago all them robertson boys were wearing khaki shorts, polo shirts, and clean cut as all get out..Now they all have long hair, long beards, and aint see in nothing but camo..If Phil was really against gay things, he wouldnt have let his sons wear khaki shorts or let Jase Highlight his hair..LMAO
