And I think that larger point is hypocricisy is alive and well. When the right persecutes someone for not saying Merry Christmas it's the right thing to do. When the left persecutes someone for saying black people were better off during Jim Crow, it's merely opinion and should be protected.
But free speech =/= right to have a job even if you're a douchebag. People get fired all the time for saying/doing things that while not illegal are against company policy. And with A&E's primary demographic, they're doing the right thing. Whether some more right-leaning network picks them up is free market. My guess is the show has run its course and this is a good way to go out with a bang.
