Red Gold, Heinz Dispute. Hoosiers blame John Kerry, What?
Edited on Sat Jan-20-07 03:09 AM by Indy_Dem_Defender
WOW! I was reading this article
http://www.indystar.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=200770119018
about the Red Gold and Heinz companies having a legal dispute over the term "Red Zone." It's just silly in its self, but after I was finished reading it, I went and read the comments people made about the dispute.

I'm just amazed by how many people on that board put the blame on John Kerry and his wife Teresa Heinz-Kerry, WTF? Kerry has nothing to do with this company and Teresa just has family stock from her deceased husband and no control over how the company is run. These people posting these comments, are probably the same people who boycotted Heinz Ketchup during the last presidential election.

True story, I have a few members of my family in the grocery business, they would get crazed die hard republicans coming up saying this is their last visit to this grocery until all heinz products are pulled from the shelves. One woman said this and in her cart was like 10 cans of Bush's Baked Beans, she says "I support the president so I buy from his family." LOL o my god :rofl:

1. Hoosiers
It's freakin amazing how profoundly ignorant the readers of the Star are, but then again that's the goal of the corporate owned media.

I,m going to start thinking of a new name.
