The Muppets Dump Chick Fil-A

The Cathy family that owns Chick Fil-A have suffered another PR failure.  The Jim Henson Company, which owns the Muppet brand is severing relations with Chick Fil-A.  The Cathys loudly insist that they are free to believe what they want and to run their business any way they want to.  All of which is true.  But so are other business owners and it is encouraging to see a number of companies and organizations exercising their rights and distancing themselves from the hate and bigotry displayed by the Cathy family and their company.  This from The Jim Henson Company's Facebook page:

The Jim Henson Company has celebrated and embraced diversity and inclusiveness for over fifty years and we have notified Chick-Fil-A that we do not wish to partner with them on any future endeavors. Lisa Henson, our CEO is personally a strong supporter of gay marriage and has directed us to donate the payment we received from Chick-Fil-A to GLAAD. (http://www.glaad.org/)

I particularly like the fact that proceeds from Chick Fil-A are being given to GLAAD.   It's a nice extra slap in the face to Chick Fil-A.  How long will it take for AFA to cite this as another example of anti-Christian persecution?
