Tell Denny's What You Think of Its Ringling Promos August 14, 2007

You know that restaurant chain Denny's, right? Well, clearly they're not hardcore animal rights activists, but you would think the company would have the decency to at least not support one of the most obviously exploitive companies on the face of the earth.

Turns out that Denny's recently announced a partnership with notorious animal abusers Ringling Bros. and Barnum & Bailey Circus to promote Ringling at its restaurants in each of the towns where the circus performs. Why would Denny's want to partner with a company which uses dangerous bullhooks, forces injured animals to perform, and has paid tens of thousands of dollars in fines for failing to meet minimal Animal Welfare Act standards?! I have no freaking idea! Why don't you ask them?

Here's a video from a little while back that is pretty informative.

Please contact Denny's CEO Nelson Marchioli and let him know what you think about Denny's new partnership with Ringling. Remind him that after learning of the abuse inherent in animal circuses, major corporations like General Mills, Burger King, Liz Claiborne, MasterCard, Visa, and Sears, Roebuck and Co. ended their sponsorships of circuses like Ringling and UniverSoul.

Those of you on the Street Team will get 250 points for doing this. Just be patient and give us a couple weeks to actually credit them, though, ok?

Thank you so much!
