It's time for Freepers to start a We Want Wendy's campaign to stop this ridiculous product disparagement. Freepers should make a point to take their families to Wendy's and encourage their friends to go, ala the Eat for Victory campaign after 9/11.
This case has received far more "legs" than any story about rats or whatever supposedly found in food. I guess, dining on digits is more offensive than munching on mice. I wonder if that is the reason why the lady dropped her suit against Wendy's; she probably had expected it to be a quick-payoff with her fancy attorney by her side.
If police clear the company of wrongdoing, we should petition Wendy's to throw its legal weight at this lady in a product disparagement suit, offering to drop everything if she goes on national TV and apologizes. That might teach other hoaxsters a lesson.
It also doesn't help when Letterman/leno crack wise about this finger incident either. It acts as a reminder and I think this was a plant anyway.
Stop Giving Wendy's The Finger!
I agree. However, Wendy's has lost a lot of money/customers because of this even though most people now believe the finger didn't come from Wendy's or any of their suppliers.
LOL!
I ate at Wendy's and they were very polite. They didn't give me the finger.
Wendy's is the place to go for Finger Food.
Okay, but don't ask me to eat the chili. It never was any good. It's some yankee recipe.
a loser-pays system would fix this crap with the quickness.
I didn't want Wendy's before...why would I want it now?
The culprit (the woman who filed the "complaint") has sued corporations before, and even sued a fast food place (El Pollo Loco) claiming her daughter had gotten sick from their food. She collected nothing. Wendy's in northern California has had to lay off employees because business is off.
