DUMB-A$$ Sharpton ( leech & grifter ) makes as much sense as someone standing in a pool of gasoline who decides to light up a cigarette!

McDonald’s feeds most of the ghetto. It is their major food source.

So pissing off the neighborhood kitchen will leave a lot of people eating cheetos and other food bags from the convenience store.

In business there is no ‘fair share.’ Nor is there any investment or racial justice stake blacks have with respect to a frigging hamburger other than if THEY don’t like it, then DON’T BUY it. Period. They didn’t buy the meat, the bread, make the sauce or put in the infrastructure to create or cook any of it.

Just ole’ lap-band AL trying to do some extorting like Jesse Jackson. I’m so sick of listening to this tripe.

“And let’s not forget the $10 billion lawsuit brought by Byron Allen over the fact that Black-owned media did not get its fair share of McDonald’s supersized advertising budgets,” he said, referring to a lawsuit filed last year by Allen, who accused McDonald’s of excluding black-owned businesses from advertising with the company.

Allen, of Allen Media Group, argued at the time that McDonald’s was guilty of “overt and systemic racism” because they refused to advertise on his subsidiaries, which include The Weather Channel and Comedy TV.

“This is about economic inclusion of African American-owned businesses in the U.S. economy,” Allen said at the time. “McDonald’s takes billions from African American consumers and gives almost nothing back.”

This is nothing more than simple extortion.

Does McDonald's take billions from AAs? Do they have billions?! Can you use an EBT card at MickeyDs?

Those who’s scream “racist!” at everyone and everything clearly aren’t familiar with the story of the boy who cried wolf.

Racism?

I don’t even bother to listen anymore.

White people haven’t set foot in McD’s in about 10 years, according to the TeeVee commercials. So, not a white issue. That’s why this article is so confusing to us.

Most of the McD’s ads seem to be black oriented.

McDonalds gives them food in exchange for that money.

What is the problem? Is it the white bread?

White folks not spitting in black folks' food.

White bread was preferred by European royalty and led to a considerable amount of health/ nutrition problems amongst them that the peasants eating dark breads did not incur.

Uh, I thought McD’s gave black people burgers and fries in exchange for their money…
