The make believe Duck Dynasty controversy

Did we suddenly wake up to the fact that companies are amoral? The fact is they exist only to make money.  So for everyone who expected A&E to react with moral indignation should pull their head out of their ass.  Mr. Robertson's statements are protected by the same 1st amendment right that protects flag burners. That A&E suspended Mr. Robertson (for 9 days) while running a 'Duck Dynasty' marathon is the height of hypocrisy.  This proves -- beyond a reasonable doubt -- that companies are individuals & should have the equal political rights, right?  Yeah!

I'm getting upset by the end-of-year pieces about all the people who died in 2013. It didn't used to bother me.
