Ingraham and guest call LGBTQ activists "bullies" as Chick-fil-A makes changes to charitable giving

Conservative commentator Chadwick Moore referred to LGBTQ activists who pushed back against Chick-fil-A as “bullies” Tuesday on Fox News as the fast-food chain shakes up its charitable giving.

Instead of lauding Chick-fil-A for appearing to wind down its well-documented history of donating to causes with hostile positions to members of the LGBTQ community, Moore and Fox News host Laura Ingraham only expressed outrage the fast food chain had stopped doing as they lamented “cancel culture.”

The segment in question on “The Ingraham Angle” opened with the Fox News host saying, “After years of resisting the intolerance of the radical left, Chick-fil-A decided to relent, hoping that those activists would just leave them alone. Well, the chicken chain won’t donate now to the Salvation Army and the Fellowship of Christian Athletes, because leftists defame those groups as anti-LGBTQ, which those groups deny.”

After showing clips of Americans saying that they were happy Chick-fil-A would no longer donate to such causes, Ingraham added: “Now they’re going to find that the leftists want more. Now they’re wanting them to ditch the group Focus on the Family. So if you give them an inch, they take a mile.”

getting push back from their supporters. The official statement was something along the lines of we will donate to faith based and non-faith based charities as we see fit.
