The Duggars: In the Media and TLC

As a reminder, the site's Politics Policy remains in effect.  Yes, Jim Bob is apparently running for office again. That does not make it an acceptable topic of conversation in here - unless for some mysterious reason, TLC brings the show back and it is discussed on there. Even then, it would be limited to how it was discussed on the show.

If you have any questions, please PM the mods, @SCARLETT45 and myself.

Let see now. Put JD in a cop uniform, Austin as a construction worker, Jeremy as a leatherman, Joseph as a bartender, Josiah as a cowboy, Ben as a soldier, and Derick as the Native American , they could have the Duggar version of the Village People. I would love to see them sing Macho Man.

I was thinking about this and the idea that the girls weren't "harmed" and weren't "damaged goods" which led me to realize that ALL of the Duggar children are "damaged goods" and I think that's becomi

I'm suspicious of anyone with only nice things to say.  I notice most of the leakers fall into the Duggar fan mode. I wonder if they're just fans of the Duggars or who knows maybe JB is paying someone to strategically link nice things and help make them look more mainstream.

Jinger is in the dowdiest outfit ever.  I thought she was supposed to be the fashionista in the family.

Looks like the women are having a contest on who could put together the frumpiest, dowdiest, outfit possible.  If it's a contest, I agree Jinger has an edge over the others, but the rest could share honors as the runners up.

This was taken alooooonnnng time ago. Look how thin Joy is. She's conveniently hiding her stomach, although I like her outfit.

The promo pictures aren't that old, maybe 1 or 2 months old tops. In the closeup Joy looks huge and Jinger is probably so covered up because her bump must have starting to show. Joy also wore that exact outfit for her Valentine's day outing.

  It certainly doesn't look like a month ago. My guess is October or November.

I can't be sure, but somebody compare the TLC photo with just Joy and Austin with the one that was taken around Thanksgiving with JB and Michelle and the arrow pointing to Austin.

Joy has the same dress on in all 3 photos. Don't like the boots in the promotional photo though. Who would take a photo in a dark alley at night? These people are strange to me.

I can't understand how Jill and Derick would dine with Joshley. Not only the molestation issue but JB went on TV and told the TV viewing population just how Godly and what a changed man Josh was. All the while, Joshley was playing around on Ashley Madison and God knows where else cheating on Anna...Goes to show you what a great judge of character Jim Bob Duggar is.

The photo could have been taken at different times and then edited together.

On another note, I hope this wasn't posted already - an In Touch article from a couple of days ago.  It's a compilation of photos we've already seen.

Is Every Duggar Messy AF?  All of the Kids' Houses Are Legit Gross

I know some of those pics are legitimately gross ... the pile of diapers, the filthy air vent. But a lot of the commentary in that article about toys and blankets and books spread around being SO awful is a bigger load of crap than the one overflowing from Sam's diaper. Just nitpicky nonsense to add things to bitch about. Little kids are playing and rolling around, for heaven's sake ... toys and books and blankets are inherent in the process. Dial down the unjustified scorn and silly admonishments about the dangerousness of it all, author Chelsea Duff.   Sam is not going to being maimed by the corner of a book and Spurgeon won't die after he falls on block. Get a grip, lady.

The author even rags on them leaving wrapping paper on the floor as they all open gifts Christmas morning.

Sheesh. 

And while I'm bitching YOU out for every little thing, Ms. Duff, let me add that I noticed you seem to be placing all the blame for the messes featured in your story on the females in each home. For your information, Jill and Jessa both have (under or unemployed) husbands who are just as capable of cleaning up around the house as they are. Your tragically stereotypical view of whose job it is to do all the housework actually offends me more than your desperate, grasping attempt to find fault in every picture you could get your hands on.  Next time try not to be so transparently sexist when doling out the criticism.

Seems In Touch does not employ editors. 

Some of the pictures are bad, but the writer didn’t spend a day with them and take the pictures. The Duggars, Seewalds and Dillards took them and posted them originally. That’s on them.

I will never understand Jessa's motivation to provide the public with documentary evidence of how filthy her house is.  That nastiness (and judgment) deserves ragging on. But pics just showing the kids playing with their little toys spread around being lumped in with images of puke covered sheets and shit stained jammies is unfair.  Not to mention the picture of Christmas morning LOL 

I guess the author was too lazy to do a screen grab of Josie licking the counter. That would have required too much actual work on her part.

Aren't they still getting sued by the Duggars? Intouch is just being petty posting this the day before the show premieres.

October 14, 2017: "Arkansas Online revealed that US District Judge Tim Brooks ruled that the Springdale and Washington County officials were not liable for any claims from the eldest Duggar child after they released the redacted police investigative reports stating that he molested four of his younger sisters to InTouch Weekly in May 2015.

"The federal judge also ruled that InTouch Weekly's publisher Bauer Publishing and its legal team were also dismissed from the case filed by Duggar and his four younger sisters since the company was protected by a First Amendment right that allowed the tabloid to publish the information that it acquired under a Freedom of Information act request.

"According to the report, the judge came up with the decision since Duggar and his sisters did not made any allegations in their lawsuits that the publishing company released any untruthful information about their child molestation case. Judge Brooks also mentioned that the police documents that were provided to the publishing company was handed out due to a request under the Freedom of Information Act.

"'Even if one assumes that the disclosure failed to comply with Arkansas statutory redaction requirements, it is clear that the Bauer defendants cannot be held liable,' the judge stated."

InTouch has been posting stories about the Duggars all along. Positive and negative.

InTouch may be the last magazine standing that the Duggars will be able to wring $$$ for "exclusives" soon. Even though the Duggars sued them.

That's from the latest promo shoot. I recognize the outfits.

I recognize them too. I guess they decided to hold off on promo pics with Lauren. She's holding Henry right? And who's the young blonde, front, left?

I think she looks like she could be more from Lauren's brood. Kendra's other sisters (besides Lauren Caldwell) are much younger than this girl.

Bigger question is why are JoKen not seated together and where is Ben? Maybe Ben took the picture.

She only has one sister other than Lauren C. and that sister did look much younger in the photo I saw. However that photo could be old, so that might be what Kendra's sister looks like now. 

I agree where is Ben?

Notice they release a photo of Lauren holding a baby hours before the engagement announcement. 

"See folks, she'll be married and pregnant most likely by the end of the year, but that's okay because she likes babies. A LOT. She knows how to hold them and take care of them. She can hold a calm baby; she is ready to be a mom soon. It doesn't matter that she's 18, because she can handle babies!"

Well, of course. She's nearly a Duggar, and we all know that 5 minutes' experience makes them pros. She's practically ready to run parenting classes.

If they are paperback, please considering recycling them.  The landfill shouldn't have to put up with that trash either and by recycling, at least something beneficial comes from the Duggars.

If you have a lot of free time on your hands you can run the pages through a shredder and use them in a cat litter box.  :-)

That may be considered animal abuse. I love Sassy too much to terrorize her that way.
