However McDonalds can't control that image because its is of pertinent concern to the public. In other words its news. My posting was more in the nature of its news value and how it would affect the forum wars and no effort whatsoever to spam or promote a website any more then its the news goal to promote Mcdonalds. Agree with my position or not,i fail to understand the anger you keep directing at me.
