Did Chick-fil-A lie to Chicago alderman?

If Chick-fil-A thought this was going away, it’s not. From CNN:

Chick-fil-A, in a statement Thursday, affirmed the workplace protections. Friday, however, company President Dan Cathy denied the company has ceased making donations to groups that oppose gay marriage and said Chick-fil-A “made no such concessions.”

“There continues to be erroneous implications in the media that Chick-fil-A changed our practices and priorities in order to obtain permission for a new restaurant in Chicago,” Cathy said in a statement to Mike Huckabee, the former Republican presidential candidate who now runs a conservative website. “That is incorrect.”

Moreno said Sunday that Cathy’s statement “at the least, muddied the progress we had made with Chick-fil-A and, at the worst, contradicted the documents and promises Chick-fil-A made to me and the community earlier this month.”
