Culture: Kentucky Fried Chicken hooks up with Oprah. Kinky.

  • Thanks to the talk-show superhost, KFC’s giving away lots of free chicken. Oprah wants people to give Kentucky Grilled Chicken – not fried, grilled – a chance, so she’s helping the chain give away some chicken. Two pieces of grilled chicken, two sides, and a biscuit, free – as long as you print an online coupon before tomorrow night. We can’t wait to see what PETA’s gonna do about this. (In other news, we wonder how KFC’s going to have extra time to fix the nation’s roads now that they have all this extra chicken to sell.) source
