CBS Takes One Last Bite at Chick-fil-A
NewsBusters.org ^ | August 6, 2012 | Paul Wilson

CBS couldn’t resist taking one parting bite at Chick-fil-A. On Aug. 6, CBS “This Morning” anchors Gayle King and Jeff Glor highlighted a lesbian chef’s “Chick on Chick Filet,” made with “loving chicken breasts,” a “honey mustard witness,” and “tolerant fries.”

Anchor Jeff Glor reported: “The Houston Press tells us about a restaurant weighing in on the Chick-fil-A same-sex marriage controversy. Beaver’s Restaurant in Houston, which is owned by a lesbian chef, created a special sandwich. The Chick on Chick Filet is described as ‘two loving chicken breasts married on toasty buns with a honey mustard witness and joined in celebration with tolerant fries.’ Their words. Long story short: That’s a sandwich.”  Anchor Gayle King responded, laughing: “I’d give it a try.” (Video after the jump.)

CBS has made no secret of its position on the manufactured Chick-fil-A controversy. They buried coverage of Chick-fil-A Appreciation Day on August 1, waiting until the morning to cover the massive crowds supporting the embattled fast-food restaurant. But the giggling anchors highlighted a sandwich made to make a point about same-sex marriage. Perhaps the CBS anchors should try to do a better job keeping their bias regarding same-sex marriage hidden.

Or they may want to feature their own CBS “This Morning” concoction: A “Chicken on Chick-fil-A” sandwich: a ham and a turkey married on a stale morning show, with a honey-mustard bias and joined in obfuscation with smugly self-righteous fries.

And they will wonder why their ratings continue to slide into the toilet...


And after a study, they will determine they are not “diverse” (liberal) enough.

TRY ONE, did you take your nom de Freep from that corny Chick-fil-A ad that Truett and Dan Cathy made together several years ago? I remember Truett offering Dan a chicken strip on a skewer, saying “Heah, try one!” I still remember that ad every time I see the elder Mr. Cathy’s face.

“Beaver’s Restaurant”

So subtle yet chic....

Homophobes and other right wing meanies will never get the pun and the avante-garde left can snicker and roll their eyes.

For the first time in my life, I am paying more attention to what the sexual proclivity of people on TV REALLY is.

I will stop viewing such persons.

I may take awhile to figure out who all I have to boycott, but that’s OK. I will boycott as I figure it all out. I am just one person, so I won’t change the ratings for such programs, but I will make myself more aware. The Big Bang Throey just got axed in this household.

> I will stop viewing such persons.

You should take your TV outside and shoot it.

If it would make a good monitor, then disconnect the cable or satellite or antenna or whatever you use to connect to the electric sewer.

In Psalm 101, it says, “I will set no wicked thing before mine eyes. I hate the work of them that turn aside. It shall not cleave to me.”

If the swill gushing out of your TV set isn’t “the work of them that turn aside, I just don’t know what is.”

Damn. Honey, you’re a cook, not a social bellwether. I don’t give a rip who you’re sleeping with as long as you remember to wash your hands.
