Jim Henson Company stops doing business with Chick-fil-A, donates the money CfA payed them to GLAAD.

Chick-fil-A are, for those not familiar with them, a low-rent KFC knockoff owned and operated exclusively by raging bigots.

You're correct about the bigotry, but they're not actually a KFC knockoff; they focus on sandwiches, and actually seem to have a pretty unique niche (which is part of why their actions are so frustrating; if KFC were to pull this crap, the option to go to Church's or Popeye's would be open, for example).

Owned by, yes. However, the local managers and employees are not much more likely to be bigots then the general population.

And the JHC proves that it is still a class act. Love them.

They're also going after this guy - http://eatmorekale.com/donate.html, who makes t-shirts that say "Eat More Kale", for trademark infringement. Because you know, people might accidentally buy a t-shirt about kale, when really they wanted a chicken sandwich.
