Phil and other family members also probably signed contracts containing “morals clauses” in which they promised to, among other things, avoid anything that would embarrass or bring shame to A&E or the brand.

I rarely watch TV anymore, so I went to check out A&E’s current lineup.

IMO, any channel that doesn’t already feel shamed or embarrassed for carrying crap like Duck Dynasty, American Hoggers, Psychic Tia, My Ghost Story, etc. probably isn’t capable of being shamed or embarrassed.

If you lie down with dogs, you get up with fleas.
