This has been going on for a while. While I admire Pamela Anderson on several levels, including her passion for her beliefs, a chicken is...a chicken. Here's the story:
Pamela Anderson has lost her bid to get the bust of Kentucky Fried Chicken (KFC) founder Colonel Harland Saunders removed from the state capitol building.
Kentucky Governor Ernie Fletcher has written to the actress/model explaining the bust will stay put, despite Anderson's claim that Sanders is a symbol of cruelty to chickens.
In his letter, Fletcher wrote, "Colonel Sanders remains a Kentucky icon. His success story has been an inspiration to many.
"The industry he began has employed hundreds of thousands of workers over the years. His business and his legacy have been good for Kentucky."
Anderson has fired back at Fletcher, calling Sanders' company one "that mutilates God's creatures".
The actress has teamed up with animal activists at People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals to urge fast food fans to boycott KFC until the company agrees to clean up its slaughterhouse policies.
