The Muppets Dump Chick-Fil-A

The Muppets have dumped their partnership with Chick-Fil-A after having sold the company Creature Shop toys for the chain’s kid’s meals. The Jim Henson Company has posted a statement to their 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.
