Christian Organization Drops "Duck Dynasty" Star
Hollie McKay reports at FoxNews:
Despite his devotion to dinner time prayers and Christian values, "Duck Dynasty" star Willie Robertson has been axed from speaking at a benefit in Bristol, Tenn. for the faith and Bible-driven organization, Family Ministries.
Why?
Wine.
The famous family announced its latest business venture last week: Duck Commander Wines. In conjunction with the winemakers of Trinchero Family Estates in Napa, the Robertsons' own line of Red, Moscato and Chardonnay is slated to hit stores next month.
According to the Ministries, Duck Commander Wines goes against the organization's core values.
"A rep for the organization told FOX411 that while they had no hard feelings toward the Robertson family and respect their business decision, they were expecting a predominantly teen turnout for the event and no longer felt that the Duck Commander CEO's presence would be the right fit," Fox News reports.
