    If this was court. I would have the contract in my hands and it wouldn't be hearsay at all. The consensus among attorneys is that A&E would not sign away their intellectual property. That is the stupidest notion ever. No competent company would do that. Ever. Assuming that A&E's attorneys have more than one brain cell, they are under at the very least a standard TV contract with a non competition covenant and a morals clause saying they can't go to any other network while they're under contract, they can get suspended if they do or say anything controversial for the network, and that A&E can do whatever they want with the show. If they do any of that while under contract, they can get sued. Big time. This isn't even debatable. You're not convincing me otherwise. Some of these other people might believe A&E has a team of incompetent attorneys, but I'm not that dumb. You don't become a major television network by hiring 4th graders as your legal squad. A&E owns duck dynasty. It's really that simple.

    Jee, i wonder why A&E backed down then.

    I mean if they had iron clad contracts and no way DD could leave, why retract and reinstate him.

    A&E hasn't made an official statement. They haven't backed down.

    Now A&E just wants to show force by making the DD family abide to Contracts and continue the show. They are acting as if they have the upper hand but I always was told you can buy out of a Contract. Yes it may hurt them in the pocket but if they did then made a network move the show could recover revenue. I just wish they would wise up and see at A&E that people everywhere get offended every minute of the day.

    It's not a show of force. Lol. They all signed their lives away before they ever filmed it. They know exactly what they got themselves into.

    They're not stupid, they're not naive. They'll probably run the contracts course until Phil comes back, and he'll probably be back.

    They are going to do whatever nets them the most profit. That's what businessmen do.

    Moving to another network before their contracts expire would result in a lawsuit so big, you'd have to go home and put your fucking underwear in a safe. That is not a smart business move, and it won't happen. No party in this is that stupid.

    Pretty sure you were on the extreme opposite of the outcome of this. For you to say that and not be joking, makes me think your elevator doesn't go all the way up.

    Why did ae cave if they had ironclad contracts doe

    I always said this wasn't about free speech it was about advertising money. Overwhelming people sided against ae and they caved.

    The argument was:
    AE backed down due to pressure. They had 2 options

    Suspend and deal with the consequences

    Lose duck dynasty to a different network

    what don't you understand about this? In some form or another DD was going to win. They had ratings on their side.

    Now they could have become Fowl Empire on some other network since ae owns the name, but AE had no cards to play.

    Those contracts obviously didn't give much leverage to AE, or they wouldn't have caved.

    They did suspend him

    They were never going to release him or the show to another network

    What the hell is all this "cards to play" BS?

    A&E wouldn't write a contract that didn't give A&E leverage on their own intellectual property

    Why are we still talking about this lame ass show?

    Christ do you always shift the argument to fit your position?

    Ok then why even suspend him if they had no intention of going through with it?

    So you believe there was no threat or pressure to the show?

    Will you boycott ae now since , you believe there was no consequences, they obviously condone his comments.

    We only know a life of white privilege, we could never understand the life that Blank has lived or the depth in which he views the world around him.
