Chick-fil-A did not publish a statement refusing to celebrate Pride Month, Snopes reported Saturday after reviewing the company’s official channels.
The fake release used outdated logo fonts and grammar inconsistent with corporate communications.
Chick-fil-A’s real social accounts remained silent on the fabricated controversy while continuing routine menu promotions.
Fact-checkers said the hoax revives annual culture-war cycles targeting fast-food brands regardless of factual policy changes.
LGBTQ advocacy groups encouraged supporters to verify statements through verified corporate websites before organizing boycotts.
The false post was copied across Facebook groups without links to chick-fil-a.com press pages.
