Even better response from KFC. We’ve hired an independent investigator to determine exactly what happened but either way we’ve committed $30,000 to medical bills and we will stick to that. ---

Gramma: “Oops, my bad, it was the _other_ fried chicken place.” :rolleyes: KFC has said they’ll give the money to the girl no matter what; good for them! Next thing they should do is go after gramma for defamation. ---

So now it’s not a hoax anymore? I only get my news from Buzzfeed headlines so I’m not watching/reading legitimate news here…but now it’s apparently not a hoax anymore. What an odd odd story ---

And send whatever damages they can get from that suit to the workers of the KFC who were receiving death threats, having drinks thrown in their faces at the drive-thru, etc. ---

My preferred result: KFC (and others) help the little girl get her medical care and grandma goes to jail for fraud. ---

No don’t send Grandma to jail. A criminal mastermind like that would soon be running the outside from the inside, like in _American Me._ ---

I wonder what the response rate calling the story unlikely was of Dopers compared to the other sites with commentary on the story. ---

This sort of thing happens rather more frequently than I like. Eventually it will make people stop giving, I’m afraid. I’m still glad IF the little girl really will benefit in some way. But grandma is a piece of shit. Well, if it really was a hoax. ---

Don’t infer that I necessarily believe that, I was just wondering. There were plenty of people who bought the story without question, such as many of the people who donated money as well as the people who gave death threats to KFC employees. Any links???
