Oprah Winfrey probably thought she would see nothing but an explosion of gratitude when she tried to treat the entire Internet to two pieces chicken from KFC. Little did she realize.
From Facebook in response to the above link:

"OMg!....now that I've read the article I am ABSOLUTELY sure this was most stupid, backwards, inane, idiotic thing for adults to involve themselves in. This is the image of freedom we want to have of ourselves as we put our chicken-engorged heads down to sleep at night?!? Yes, this is USAmerican free-dumb! Was she trying to "feed the masses"? This is ALL kinds of wrong....Folks, let's get a clue...and some social integrity!
What do we say to our children after we come home from a freakin' "protest" at a chicken joint cuz we couldn't get two free pieces of dead poultry muscle?!?!?
Yeah, we're the ones who kill who kill and fight for toys and big-screen TVs at Xmess! There's your bed-time story, little Meghan.
Sleep on that."
