The Duggars interview on Fox News backfired. Jim Bob
and Michelle Duggar showed no remorse, claimed that they were victims
of the police and media, and revealed to the world why they should never
be allowed back on television.
The interview intro featured Megyn Kelly referring
to Josh Duggar’s admitted child molestation as “allegations.” Megyn
Kelly’s intro sounded like it came directly from the Duggars agent.
The interview began with Jim Bob and Michelle Duggar
repeating their press release. The Duggar parents said that they were
devastated. Jim Bob said that Josh was just curious about girls, and the
girls didn’t even know that he did it. (Jim Bob and Michelle are
working hard to whitewash their son’s crimes.) Jim Bob said, “Looking
back, we did the best we could under the circumstances.” The Duggars
claimed that this happens in a lot parents’ homes. Jim Bob said, “Again,
this is not rape or something like that.”
Jim Bob Duggar claimed that they didn’t send their
molesting son for real help, because real programs don’t have a good
success rate. Jim Bob hinted that God cured Josh Duggar’s habit of
molesting his sisters, Michelle Duggar said that her son knew in his
heart it was wrong.
Megyn Kelly’s “tough questions” involve asking a lot
of, ‘what was that like for you?’ Job Bob repeated that Christian based
non-professional counseling turned his molester son’s life around.
Michelle Duggar was asked if she feared for the
safety of her daughters, and she answered that they put safeguards in
place, but she expressed no fear for her daughters. Jim Bob Duggar
admitted that they didn’t try to protect their daughters as much as,
“Josh’s heart went astray.” Jim Bob tried to explain it away again by
saying that none of the girls knew about it or understood what he had
done. Duggar was claiming that Josh Duggar’s child molestation was a
victimless crime.
In the next segment, the Duggars denied that they
covered up their son’s crimes. Jim Bob said that the selection of the
trooper was random. The Duggars said that the child pornography
convicted cop put the fear of God into Josh. The Duggar parents said
that Josh Duggar and all of their kids received professional counseling.
Jim Bob Duggar claimed that his family had nothing
to hide by the time the TLC show began. Jim Bob said that God has
forgiven Josh Duggar, and then the Fox News witch hunt against the
police chief who leaked the report began. The Duggars speculated that
the chief was bribed. The Duggars said that they want to be advocated
for protecting juvenile records. The Duggars claimed that they are the
victims in the situation because the sealed Josh Duggar police report
was leaked. Jim Bob Duggar quoted Mike Huckabee saying that Josh should
be forgiven.
If this interview was intended to get the Duggars
their television show back, it backfired. In the entire hour, there was
no apology from the Duggars who denied that there is any hypocrisy in
their behavior. Michelle Duggar claimed that there is an agenda, and
Josh Duggar’s actions are being twisted to hurt and slander the family.
Jim Bob and Michelle Duggar showed no remorse and
argued for the rest of the family not being punished for what Josh did.
It is obvious that TLC and the Duggars are working together, and this
interview was designed to get them back on television, whether it be as
19 Kids and Counting or a spinoff.
The Duggars claimed that they were victimized by the police, and their trust was betrayed.
Fox
News thought they were helping to save the Duggars, but in reality,
they did the public a favor by showing the world why this family should
not be allowed on national television. The Duggars think that they are
the victims, which is why this twisted family should never be on
television again.
