Chick-fil-A has become a sudden target of right-wing ire following the discovery that the company has an executive overseeing its diversity, equity and inclusion policies.
NEW YORK —
Shortly after, social media personalities, including Charlie Kirk of Turning Point USA and Ian Miles Cheong, joined in.The target of their ire was Erick McReynolds, Chick-fil-A's vice president of DEI, who's held the position for about three years. Chick-fil-A says it is "committed to being better at together."
The company has deep Christian roots. Its DEI page on Chick-fil-A's website includes references to God, writing the company's purpose is to "glorify God by being a faithful steward of all that is entrusted to us. To have a positive influence on all who come into contact with Chick-fil-A."It's unclear how whether boycott efforts have been successful. Chick-fil-A is privately held and does not routinely announce sales data.
