Because everyone knows what happens when some Muslims get offended. So this is yet another reinforcement of the idea that terrorism works, and jihadist intimidation and thuggery work: cowards start falling into line even without any explicit threat. –˜Duck Dynasty” Star: Show Adding “˜Fake Bleeps” Despite No Cursing,” from CBS Houston, October 4 (thanks to Kenneth):
MONROE, La. (CBS Houston) “” Popular A&E reality show “Duck Dynasty” continues to smash competition in the ratings on Wednesday nights, but one star has spoken out about how the show is portrayed.
In an interview with Sports Spectrum TV earlier this year that’s only recently gone viral, Phil Robertson admitted that fake bleeps were inserted into the show even though there was no cursing happening.

“Of course these people probably thought that there was some profanity going on which there was zero,” Robertson stated. “If we”re not using profanity, why make it look like we”re using profanity? What is the point? Why don’t you just run it and say what we say?”
Robertson also said that the name Jesus has been cut out during the family”s prayer scene at the end of the show.
“So they would just have me saying, “˜Thank you Lord for the food, thank you for loving us. Amen.” So I said, “˜Why would you cut out “˜In Jesus” name?” They said, “˜Well those editors are probably doing that. They just think that they don’t want to offend some of the Muslims or something.–
Robertson said that since that conversation the show has been leaving “Jesus” in the show.
“So I notice now they are “¦ leaving it in there, but you got to remember, spiritual warfare,” Robertson said. “I mean you have people with no moral compass, it ain’t there.”…
