The displayed message (which is posted on the Berenstain website as a "memo") is very ambiguous - or is it meant to be? I don't know.....
Oh, and it would be really funny (ha ha) if the Muppets thing did turn out to be defective and had to be recalled. Of course, libs would start a rumor about all of this was the other way around.
It sounds like the Berenstain family just want to not be harassed by the Left about it. The text of the message:
Our publisher, HarperCollins, is marketing several of their Berenstain Bears titles through a kids' meal promotion at Chick-Fil-A scheduled for August. This program was in development for over a year. We were unaware of any controversy involving Chick-Fil-A until July 25th.simply states that they do not have control over the program, and anybody wanting to complain should contact the people actually in control. The statement does not include any wording critical of CFA or supporting gay marriage.The Berenstain family does not at this time have control over whether this program proceeds or not. We hope those concerned about this issue will direct their comments toward HarperCollins and Chick-Fil-A. Sincerely, The Berenstain Family.
