Through NUMEROUS articles in the mainstream press, the public has already heard one answer to those questions from the Pride team. What is the company's side?
The problem is that gays are saying that they too want to “strengthen and enrich marriages”.
What I want to see is that FRC gets the money they’ve been getting. They do GREAT RESEARCH, with REAL sourcing. If I don’t see that...then I go back to eating at McDonalds’s.
People on FR should know that you can’t trust the media.
Good. I will continue to swing by and get a spicy chicken and waffle fries once in awhile.
More people should just ignore the queers.
This from MassResistance Update today:
Friday afternoon we were finally successful in reaching someone in the Chick-fil-A public relations department. Previously, we were only able to reach people who were not knowledgeable of the situation, would not comment, or just recorded messages. The public relations woman we talked to was fairly candid, which was refreshing. We asked her direct questions, and she answered them.
The main points of our conversation:
She told us unequivocally that Chick-fil-A is going to continue to donate to the same pro-family groups as before, even the ones that the homosexual groups disapprove of. We specifically asked her if this included Family Research Council, Exodus International, Eagle Forum, and Focus on the Family. She said “Yes, it includes those.”
But what about the public statements that Chick-fil-A was (1) re-evaluating who they give to, and (2) would avoid the “gay marriage” arena completely? She agreed that those statements were confusing but would not elaborate further as to why they are being pushed.
Why did Chick-fil-A refuse to respond to questions by the press about this, which would have cleared things up? She said that the company often doesn’t respond to the media because of the media’s propensity to spin things. (We suggested that in this case it was necessary.)
Did Chick-fil-A executives actually meet and negotiate with Alderman Moreno and the homosexual group Civil Rights Agenda? She said she did not know whether they did or not.
Did CEO Dan Cathy actually meet with college homosexual activists to find “common ground” as has been widely reported in the press? She said she did not know.
We talked for quite a while and she reiterated those points. We asked the obvious question: If Chick-fil-A is giving to the same pro-family groups as before — and this is the crux of the heated issue here — why not say that clearly on a prominent place on the web site, and tell it to the press, instead of having them read a confusing and misleading policy statement? It would have solved all the misunderstanding going around. She didn’t have an answer to that.
CFA seems to be doing the right thing, but hoping they can spin it so that libs won't hold it against them. That is impossible. Libs are the masters of spin and misdirection. You can't outspin them. They should embrace who they are and be "loud and proud" about what they stand for. When only one side is "loud and proud" about who they are, and the other shrinks back into the shadows like a frightened mouse, the "loud and proud" signs wins over more converts and changes the direction of the country.
That's only because they believed the reports in the MSM. Sadly, it happens all the time, and the MSM knows this, so they purposely do this kind of thing to created division among Conservatives
