CBS Takes One Last Bite at Chick-fil-A
CBS couldn’t resist taking one parting bite at Chick-fil-A. On Aug. 6, CBS “This Morning” anchors Gayle King and Jeff Glor highlighted a lesbian chef’s “Chick on Chick Filet,” made with “loving chicken breasts,” a “honey mustard witness,” and “tolerant fries.”

Or they may want to feature their own CBS “This Morning” concoction: A “Chicken on Chick-fil-A” sandwich: a ham and a turkey married on a stale morning show, with a honey-mustard bias and joined in obfuscation with smugly self-righteous fries.
