A&E + Phil Robertson Way's to Ban & Profit.

Duck Dynasty & Phil Robertson has Created quite the Stir or is it A&E ? Either way the Hot Plate is plugged in and People are Sharing and Liking & Commenting Even Changing their profile picture and Swearing off anything Remotely related to A&E. Having been Investing in Stocks for 20+ Years While talking to my dad last night I just knew that I had the Company in my Watched list and had been thinking about it in my PRIME Buys I am Considering. However it took me till this morning to remember who it was. Well it is Important that if you are going to Boycott or Profit from the A&E Media Frenzy that you Do it Properly here are some ideas and things that will help you on your Journey. This is a Big Task Either way!


 Brands / Products / Companies that own A&E Networks Below
As a avid Stock Investor and Being that I am Knee Deep in Business everyday I know a lot of people from a bunch of different walks of life and this has changed me over the years and as i get older I don't know that I really dislike anyone or disagree with anyone else's rights. I just want to live my life.  

If you Support Phil Robertson I Support You and the Same goes for If you Support A&E I Support you. Both Phil and A&E Used their rights and in the end it may cost them both something. I believe There was NO wrong done they Both have rights just you cant user your employers TV network as your Pulpit. No civil rights were violated he is on Contract not a Employee In all Honesty If  worker at the Local McDonald's or Walmart made those type of Comments in a Interview with a local paper their own time or not they would not have a job anymore. So Why the Backlash?? I think its because in Social Media People just SHARE or LIKE without even knowing what they are doing there is no such thing as research anymore when you can just click SHARE.

 With that in Mind I MUST Profit from things in the News through my www.stockgambles.com Website and this A&E Phil Robertson deal is a small deal with War and real Problems but WOW the Backlash. Please pay attention here if you are Serious about Boycotting the Makers of the Show or Researching to Invest because you have a big road ahead of you. and By the way there is going to be a Awful talk with the kids in a little while.... Read on..;-)

 Hello Society

Seriously I do not have the Time or want to type out the HUNDREDS of other Business owned by Hearst Corp!

The Best List is on Their Website
 
http://www.hearst.com/index.php

I only WISH I could Invest in this Company the Website is Amazing and their Investment style is just Top Notch. The A&E issue is a Moot point  #1 People will watch reruns possibly even more now. #2 They have season 5 filmed... Everyone will wtch that and #3 The have a contract that would have to be bought out. In the end its a Crapshoot and A&E and Phil will be just fine. I would bet one of these companies are producing his NEW show and will reap  HUGE over it and will be owned by the SAME PEOPLE!!  We are just being Marketed to.

So thats who owns the First 50% here comes the next Owner.

Disneyland Cancels Phil Robertson's Season Pass

We all know Disney is a HUGE Company and below I have Listed SOME of the Brands they own they add to them weekly and there is no way i could type a complete list.
Disney Studios owns A LOT 

As you can well guess there will be no more trips to Disneyland or Disney World or any of those attractions with the kids if its a Boycott you are looking for..;-(

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_assets_owned_by_Disney



Disney is a Stock that I have been Watching for quite sometime and it just NEVER comes down for a chance to buy the just keep making MORE and MORE Money... I WILL buy this Stock and Likely before the year ends it is NOT a Short term buy it is Very Long term for me and I just think that in the whole jist of things Disney is very solid.
If anything after doing the light research I did for this article I REALLY like DIS Stock now and I really cannot believe the Reach of these 2 companies

Like I say either way you swing on this I do not disagree. You can take it seriously but no one can ever hurt these companies over this they are FAR to Large for that.;-) 

I guess at the end of the day the question here is Really BUY or Not to Buy... I say BUY wait for your best feeing on price take a nibble and then settle into a regular Investment Strategy on DIS Stock... Good Luck
