Newsweek Seeks former Chick-Fil-A Employee "to spill the beans on life (at) antigay company"

Newsweek Tumblr ^

[Diago]

Chick-Fil-A came under criticism this month after a report by the organization Equality Matters revealed that the company donated around $2 million to antigay Christian organizations in 2010. “Guilty as charged,” the fast-food chain’s president Dan Cathy said over allegations that his company is antigay (“We are very much supportive of the family—the biblical definition of the family unit.”).

So. Here we are. Tumblr, listen up.

We’re hoping to find a current or former employee of Chick-Fil-A who might want to spill the beans on life inside the alleged antigay company.

If that’s you, or you know someone who might want to talk to us, please email brian.ries@newsweekdailybeast.com. And if you’d like to help spread the word of our search, a reblog or a tweet would be most appreciated.

Dear brian.ries@newsweekdailybeast.com:

We worked fabulously hard -- or so we thought -- and then our company was sold for a dollar.

The old mensch who bought us for a buck up and died, and now his family has snapped their wallet shut. Oy vey.

And now the guy who owns the controlling interest is famous for shutting down loser companies without warning.

Oh, wait, that's you and your employer. Chick-fil-A is awesome. Don't quit your gay job, brian.

Regards,

The Free People of the United States of America

I ask my husband if we could take our grand children there for lunch today he said pick some place else that place is always to crowded..

We need a list of homosexual supporting businesses so we can spread them around the web. Why not? Shouldn't people know who these businesses really are, and their vision of what they want America to be like ??? Queers raping little boys everywhere?

Let's start one here: Hom(o)e Depot Starbucks JC Pennys I stopped shopping at all three. They are up front in their promotions.

Newsweek, like the rest of what passes today as the American news media, is riddled with trouser pilot and she-he activists. By infiltrating mass media, politics (Congressional staff), and local, state and federal bureaucracies, LGBT’s have gained power that far exceeds their tiny population.

It is crooked. It attempts to create propaganda and is obviously aimed at people who built things, on whom their dear leader has painted a target (or placed his hat, to use the Philly union boss analogy).

We used to use a term for this, "ginned up", which when it was used clearly denoted corruption's taint. Perhaps its use has been so worn out with all that goes on.

It must be universally taught that outlets such as ABC, Newsweak, and (MS)NBC are purveyors of tainted, ginned-up and cherry-picked pseudo-news. They don't deserve our attention, except to use them as examples of what the esteemed calling of journalism should not be. They mess in their own nests, which is a sure sign of unsustainability.

Pose as a gay person and sing rhapsodies about how Chik-Fil-A treats us with dignity and respect.

Or how about thum show tunes?

I’ve been to Chick Fil A’s as far north as Erie, PA, all down the south including Charlotte, NC, to Savannah, GA, all the way to Tampa, FL.

And one thing that I can say is that they’ve definitely instilled their southern hospitality (since they are based in Atlanta) in all of their locations. Didn’t matter if it was in Erie or Tampa, each request was granted with “My pleasure” and a big smile.

It’s hard to fault some of the other franchises because any time you get to the level of having over 33,000 locations, like McDonalds, it’s difficult to instill a culture.

But Chick Fil A has done a fantastic job. I’m glad you’ve discovered it - and their food is phenomenal as well. Try the Chick-n-Minis for breakfast!

Dear brian.ries@newsweekdailybeast.com:

Remember when I said in #81 don't quit your gay job? Well, it just quit you.

DEATH OF PRINT: NEWSWEEK TO GO DIGITAL ONLY

[N. Theknow]

Instead of embracing perversion and calling it normal and its company supporting "diversity" as a marketing strategy to gain less than 2% of the population as "new" customers, Chik-Fil-A has told the less than 2% to go urinate up a strand of hemp fiber and endeared themselves to a far greater base of "new" customers.

Meanwhile, back at the JC Penney store, the crickets are really chirping.

We KNOW there are antiChristian figures within Turner-CNN. Would any employees at Newsweak be willing to share observations of antiChristian remarks made by THEIR employer?

There go the public school and dentist office sales.

So? I think businesses that give to pro-homosexual organizations should be outed. Let's see who get's Americas business then.

That is exactly the first thought that crossed my mind too..

[SuziQ]

Hah, the only hate I see is from the homosexual activists.

As opposed to “the Olive Garden” where anyone who I ever met who worked there refused to eat there under any circumstances whatsoever.

[JimRed]

Has CFA refused to hire gays?

Had they done so, a valid argument could be made against food preparation businesses having to hire mentally ill disease vectors who might put who-knows-what on your sandwich!

[Izzy Dunne]

I don't suppose they would be interested in speaking to any of these former employees or their families.

I suspect they are not looking for a generic, positive, revealing story (they'll get 15,000 of those), but a tale of the time when Butch called Joe a "faggot" in the parking lot, and Sue the cashier laughed.

[Lazamataz]

I should call. Make a bunch of stuff up. Then when they run with it, call them out on quoting bull****.
