Posted by The Jim Henson Company to its 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.
The same criticism gay supporters throw at Christians and conservatives for their beliefs is exactly what they are criticizing the Christians/conservatives for. Hypocrisy at its finest. Christians hold certin principals and asking them to sacrifice it is asking them to sacrifice a part of their faith. Boycotting a company for a family's personal beliefs, that is just plain stupid. I'm not anti-gay, just anti-hypocrisy.

you're joking, right, Sonia? If Chick-fil-A was anti-Black would you still be backing them?

Your Joking right Kevin, you really equate the color of skin to sexual preference. You have bought into a lie.

Thank you joel, some people are just so uninformed. I for one will still be eating more Chic-Fil-A.
