Hostages? **** em'
Yeah no shit it's no surprise to any reasonable person when they stop and think about it but this is one of the highest rated cable TV shows with a dumb as shit reality TV audience.

I saw the episode that got the gay community in an uproar. Basically poppa made a comment about the gay photo guy "not getting enough love from momma" and rolling his eyes at the effeminate male they had hired to take pictures of his wife and him with their dogs. How else would you expect a conservative Christian (old) man to act?

LOL, they can't even keep their ignorant bigoted story straight (so to speak). Isn't the stereotype normally that gay guys are too close to their mothers?

Someone at GQ probably saw the episode and decided that they needed to interview the guy, because of his view towards homosexuality. GQ does have the largest amount of homosexual readers, compared to other publications, so they probably decided it was a good idea to gain notoriety amongst the community by doing that article.

Do you prefer dogs or cats?
This is exactly how this works. You guys ever been in a WalMart? There's more Duck Dynasty beach towels and Christmas sweaters than there are Christian lawn ornaments.

It's freaking hilarious.
Miley Cyrus was being whored out (pun intended) by Wal-Mart several years ago.

Beginning with a total aside, I cannot think of a more horrifying person to get support from than Sarah "I swear my weird ass fake version of Christianity is not rooted in the same mentality as a James Jones level cult" Palin.
2nd Pat Robertson ( or Phil or whatever, the following applies to both evenly), was not "quoting" scripture. You can say he was paraphrasing. You can say he was reinterpreting, but he wasn't "quoting."
This is one of the ( many) reason's why this is not a Constitutional Amendment issue. His bigoted view and personal interpretation of scripture ( don't even get me started on the translation issue) has nothing to do with freedom of Religion. It does have everything to do with freedom of speech, and would certainly apply if A&E were banning him and were a government run agency.
Thing is though, it isn't.
It is a private organization. He is a contracted employee. He ( rather stupidly) signed that contract and left the moral clause as is the standard for many high profile contracts, in.
You see being a contracted employee, if you violate a clause in that contract, you can be terminated. He is no more protected in his contract than Michael Vick was when he decided to become the Vince McMahon of dogfighting. Or A-Rod was when he just kept cheating because "why the fuck not."
More accurately, like Paula Dean and all of her inexplicable sponsor deals, if A&E feels Phil Robertson has violated anything they happen to require of him and in doing so has brought a ton of bad publicity, they have every right to terminate or punish him.
Period.
I'd expect him to act like my grandfather and not care.
also wtf yawa
