KFC Makes History As One Of The Dumbest In Business

07/02/2009 David Jones Comments off

Many of you, by now, are aware of My Fifteen Minutes of Flame at a local KFC establishment for the sake of their tasty grilled chicken.  Really, how could anyone forget that, well anyway, I just came across an article by CNN: CNN’s Dumbest In Business – 2009 Edition and listed among the greats was my favorite place, KFC.

From the article:

The chain gave away 4 million meals before it began refusing coupon-holders, some of whom protested in the blogosphere and staged sit-ins in stores. At least two have sued. KFC, which is trying to shake its fast food image and has even started calling itself KGC — as in Kentucky Grilled Chicken — in some commercials, has issued rain checks.

Yeah, that was dumb and you were wrong Colonel Sanders.
