‘Duck Dynasty’ Reversal Shows GLAAD Has an Expiration Date

From Time Magazine:
It isn’t shocking that a conservative Christian duck-hunter from Louisiana has opinions that GLAAD deemed “anti-gay,” and it isn’t shocking that A&E immediately kowtowed to GLAAD at the first drop of the word “homophobic.” What is shocking, however, is that A&E lifted Phil’s hiatus in spite of the fact that they knew GLAAD wasn’t going to be happy about it. A few years ago, I couldn’t imagine a network disregarding GLAAD’s recommendations. A&E is certainly setting a precedent – which makes me wonder about where we are today with queer politics.
Phil Robertson and A&E just told the rest of the world, it's time to ignore the faux outrage of the left, liberal groups, and the Drive-By-Media. They are no longer relavent.
