Phil from Duck Dynasty gets in trouble for being against homosexuality

[FlyingNarwhal]

Hasn't it always been possible to lose your job if you risk damaging your employer's reputation, especially if it's a contractual obligation (which is what I assume was the case here)? It's just that in the past it was much more likely that you'd be fired if you spoke up in favor of gays and gay rights, and today it's the opposite. On the positive side, I think that a lot of people who would have told those gay rights supporters to shut up (and would have applauded the loss of employment of such a person) are now more sensitive to the idea of network censorship.

I really don't think either side learned anything from the shift in opinions.
