And I understand why/if you don't care. I don't either, really, just found this amusing.



How A Wealthy, Clean-Cut ‘Duck Dynasty’ Tricked The World For Publicity



In the wake of the recent homophobia and racism scandals surrounding A&E’s popular so-called “reality” show Duck Dynasty, there is an important, little-known detail that should be remembered: it’s all fake… all of it.

Sources close to the show have time and time again leaked details that the show is literally scripted. Because of non-disclosure agreements, cameramen, and others who wish to go public with this information have proven unable to do so. As a result, without a name attached to such leaked information, many of these claims of inauthenticity are seen as lacking credibility.

But as the saying goes, “a picture is worth a thousand words.” One thing that the so-called “Duck Dynasty” family cannot deny are family pictures taken before their fabricated “reality” show was scripted for them. These pictures all showcase a family devoid of backwoods attire: no camouflage, no face paint, no headbands, and no beards.

1. What a joke these people are. The stupidity and ignorance are real, though.

[darkangel218]

3. True.

Even more ridiculous are those buying into their fakeness. Its unbelievable.

[babylonsister]

6. Or they're marketing majors, performing to

the lowest common denominators they knew they could sway.

Disclaimer: never saw the show, don't care to.

11. The hunter's equivalent to Honey Boo Boo.

[Chaco Dundee]

18. never seen the show

Did not hear of it until this little hick up they apparently had.I do know now why some people do dress up like those circus clowns and believe that attire hides their inferiority complexes.

[Warpy]

2. I keep wondering when the sensible majority will wake up

and realize these fuckwits are just confirming the Yankee prejudice that anyone outside of New Orleans is a drunken, snuff juice dribbling, cousin marrying, knuckle dragging coonass. They've tried to overcome that prejudice for years. Now these assholes have come along, climbed into fake beards, camo and makeup to push the state back to square one.

[JHB]

4. Next they'll be telling us pro wrestling is fake!

[babylonsister]

8. Those beards didn't grow overnight

They've clearly been working on them a while.

[DJ13]

9. Hollywood is good at beards

[BainsBane]

10. beard weaves?

Ya think?

[babylonsister]

12. Next story - fake beards. Delicious!

[dmr]

22. Jon Stewart had one of those beards a couple weeks ago

Looked just like the duck guys beard too.

[BainsBane]

25. No it didn't

Those are long beards. Stewart's was short.

[quakerboy]

23. Takes about 6 months

if you've got the knack.

[dgauss]

13. They fake out ducks with their duck call product...

Then fake out people with their "reality" show product. Fake is what they do.

[3catwoman3]

14. Anybody else reminded...

...of Dan Quayle's outrage over Murphy Brown's pregnancy.

I never know whether to feel sorry for or scornful of people who are so easily duped.

[babylonsister]

16. I remember he couldn't spell potato. nt

[dmr]

20. I think of him every time I write my grocery list

Honestly, I do!
Then I hang my head in shame.

[babylonsister]

24. Hahaha!

[Jamastiene]

27. I do too!

[mimi85]

15. What's really scary

is that they're coming out with their own line of guns! I about gagged when I read this.

I will never, ever watch A&E again. Not that I do now, but at one time, it was actually a pretty good channel.

[3catwoman3]

21. They need to ...

...drop the "Arts" from their channel name and just call themselves "Entertainment" - nothing artistic about this dreck at all.

[slumcamper]

17. The perfect metaphor for the wingnut right. <eom>

[Marie Marie]

19. In that lower picture, they could easily pass for any of the Romney boys.

[Iwillnevergiveup]

26. Looks as if

the headbands hold the wigs and maybe even the beards in place. And are those golf clubs the real guys are holding?

[SunSeeker]

28. Yes. Click on the link in the OP for the uncropped pic.

The link has even more damning photos, like the copycat beach family portraits each brother posed for before going uber redneck.

29. Brawawaaa.. the first comment.. The Duckees are soaking in Duck Koolaid!

Yeah? So what? The American people have been tricked by a fake president — they are gullible. Survivor, Big Brother — all that crap is scripted. What’s your point?

Devolves quickly into political sniping!

30. Seen these before.

I don't think they hide from them. And they have always said the show is scripted, like all 'reality' shows. Before or after, I just don't get it. The popularity I mean. What is a show - them duck hunting in the woods? I have WAY too many cable channels to consider watching scripted reality shows about a duck family.
In the end they are the ones laughing - all the way to the computer keyboard and logging into bank accounts. Why there is a big following I may not know but then again I don't really care to know. It's like which sock on which foot in the morning. It could not matter less to me. There they are, storied 10 times a day in between 10 times a day Kardashian stories.
These things just aren't clickable for me - on Internet or with remote control.

[seveneyes]

31. It's almost like they are acting

Who would have thought that their actual lives were different than they portray on TV?
