It's the "radical perv" racketeers who have been relentlessly harassing CFA for months. Why blame the victim? That would be giving the radicals just what they want.
That's not what he said. He said he personally supported traditional marriage.
Why should I believe the rest of the article?
CFA will be giving them $$ real soon at this rate
I'm tired of conservatives being bullied into submission. It makes me sick.
Homosexuals make some of the world’s best con men (Obama). I’ll wait for confirmation before I jump the gun.
I don't see any recent press releases on their web site:

I need to see what the F happened!! :(
It’s still on.
I’ll wait
“CFA will be giving them $$ real soon at this rate”
No kidding. First comes the unrelenting harrassment, then the shakedown.
BTW....Hobby Lobby is the next Christian owned store that will be under attack.
Jul. 31, 2012 Chick-fil-A Response to Recent Controversy
Chick-fil-A is a family-owned and family-led company serving the communities in which it operates. From the day Truett Cathy started the company, he began applying biblically-based principles to managing his business.
The Chick-fil-A culture and service tradition in our restaurants is to treat every person with honor, dignity and respect –regardless of their belief, race, creed, sexual orientation or gender. We will continue this tradition in the over 1,600 Restaurants run by independent Owner/Operators. Going forward, our intent is to leave the policy debate over same-sex marriage to the government and political arena.
Our mission is simple: to serve great food, provide genuine hospitality and have a positive influence on all who come in contact with Chick-fil-A.
As long as CFA isn’t giving money to the poofters it should not matter who they don’t donate money to.

This is the loser claiming victory to cover their own A$$ for having to cave.. This is pure CHICK IN S#IT..
That’s from July 31. Certainly it isn’t based on a ‘cave’ over the past few days.
There is no cave except in the minds of liberals and hysterical conservatives.
I think it was a CFA press release
This excerpt says it was TCRA.
“With the dust having finally settled, a shocking report from a Chicago-based gay rights group claims that the fast food chain has now pledged to stop funding groups that stand against legalizing gay marriage. In a press release on Tuesday, The Civil Rights Agenda (TCRA) announced that an internal Chick-fil-A document shows that the company is re-thinking which organizations it will fund.”

In a letter addressed to Alderman Moreno and signed by Chick-fil-A’s Senior Director of Real Estate, it states, “The WinShape Foundations is now taking a much closer look at the organizations it considers helping, and in that process will remain true to its stated philosophy of not supporting organizations with political agendas.” Winshape, a non-profit funded by Chick-fil-a, has donated millions of dollars to anti-LGBT groups, including some classified as hate groups, such as Focus on the Family and the National Organization for Marriage. In meetings the company executives clarified that they will no longer give to anti-gay organizations.
But WinShape didn’t release the same comment to BuzzFeed. In fact, they refused to say anything conclusive, and seemed to lack self-awareness about having an anti-gay stance:
“We have no agenda, policy or position against anyone. We have a 65-year history of providing hospitality for all people and, as a dedicated family business, serving and valuing everyone regardless of their beliefs or opinions,” he said in a general press statement emailed to BuzzFeed by another Chick-fil-A spokesman, Jerry Johnston, who said the company’s press statement is not new. “The genuine, historical intent of our WinShape Foundation and corporate giving has been to support youth, family and educational programs.”
