I've been curious about this topic for a little while now. It seems every other day we have someone on here complaining in one way shape or form about a hunting show or host. Some of the feelings towards these shows and hosts seem to be pretty darn bitter and negative.
It really does seem some of them touch a nerve with the viewers, yet these shows still find their way onto the air and also find SPONSORS.

What I want to know is, of these shows you simply cannot stand, or the hosts you want to throw the remote control at do you also notice who sponsors them? Do you look at the sponsors the same way you look at the disliked show/host and does it affect you and your purchasing decisions, or your view of the product in general?

I don't want a big hangin' party here for any specific shows, hosts or names.....please refrain.
I am just curious about how these personalities and shows might affect your wallet and the gear you will use.
