The difference in this is that the Dixie Chicks record label did not drop them. The people just boycotted their product.

The record label may not have dropped them, but they were "suspended" from many radio stations. Also, new episodes with Phil will be aired in January, and none of the merchandise featuring Phil has been pulled from the shelves.

The network is probably just waiting for all of this to die down, then it will be business as usual with Phil continuing to be on DD.

At the behest of customers. Not because they were suspended by the radio stations or record labels.

I bet you a cold beer that the market (people complaining to A&E either way) is on the Commander's side.

At the end of the day I hope both A&E and the DD guys stick to their guns and have to part ways and political correctness gets the finger.

Obviously you can't tell the difference between the two or you wouldn't have started this thread.
