Really good publicity, or poisonous publicity. The choice is yours, BareFAT C**tessa.
Barefoot Contessa, you're a pig, and you'd better hope that you're never in a situation like the one faced by the kid. Wow, a dying fan, and you essentially flipped him the bird.
Karma's a bitch.
Make-A-Wish Foundation® of America
Ina Garten Statement
PHOENIX (March 25, 2011) The Make-A-Wish Foundation has a very strong working relationship with Ina Garten, a celebrity wish granter who has generously made herself available to grant a wish in the past. Ina is a good friend of the Foundation and we are grateful to her for her support of our mission.
The Make-A-Wish Foundation grants the wishes of children with life-threatening medical conditions. From time to time, planning for wishes doesn’t turn out as originally envisioned, despite peoples best intentions and efforts. In such cases, the Foundation is committed to working with the wish child and family to grant another wish.
Each wish we grant requires extensive support from many people, and we respect that no individual has an unlimited capacity to grant childrens wishes on demand.
We regard the planning of wishes as a private process among the parties involved. Thus we cannot respond to questions about any particular wish in progress.
Individuals who are interested in learning more about the wish-granting process, or how they can help, are encouraged to visit wish.org.
