Kentucky Fried Publicity Stunt

We talked on the air about how Oprah gave away coupons for a free dinner at KFC to everyone in America. Gee, who would have thought with a recession going on, and Oprah telling people to get free food that a few people would actually do it? Well, KFC is now back peddling and have said that all of the coupons are now void. You can redeem the coupon for another coupon that you will eventually get in the mail, probably so they can spread out the dates the coupons are redeemed so people don't bum rush the local KFC again.

Here's the president of KFC explaining the situation in a video that was probably filmed way before Oprah even knew she was going to give out the stupid coupons on her show... You know, like those Osama Bin Laden videos that they keep releasing after his death.



I love how this guy is saying the huge response is due to the delicious taste of his chicken that no one has even tasted yet. Dude, mom and dad lost both of their jobs this week, little Billy needs braces and the house is being foreclosed on... they'd stand in line for a crap sandwich on poop toast if it was free!
