Several television networks are telling A&E Network that if they decide to drop the Duck Dynasty show, they are willing to pick it up.
They might even get into a bidding war.
One story out is that Merrill Sport, owner of the Christian-affiliated Hunt Channel told the website that he'd be thrilled to pick up the show.
Even FOX is watching the situation closely according to an insider. "I think they'd love to have a top ranked show handed to them."
Meanwhile, the Lt. Governor is seeing if the state of Louisiana can do anything legally against the A&E Network.
"We depend quite a bit on this show for our tourism dollars. If there's anything legally we can do, we will,"
Another network, The Pursuit Channel (new to me) has also offered to pick up the show.
A spokesman for A&E says that the Robertson family's contract prevents them from doing a show anywhere else.
When our reporter asked them how was A&E going to deal with all the people boycotting the whole network and losing their sponsors money, he wouldn't say.
Willard Hunter for $tar$.
