Hip Hop Press - Hip Hop Press Releases

LOUISVILLE, Ky.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--April 11, 2005--The release sent out by the group PETA is completely inaccurate. KFC Corporation continues to work with hip hop mogul Russell Simmons and Dr. Benjamin Chavis and Hip Hop Summit Action Network to discuss their concerns about animal welfare. As a result, KFC is moving forward with measures to solidify its animal welfare standards and guidelines with the support of the Simmons' Team.

Reverend Al Sharpton of the National Action Network has great respect for Mr.Simmons and the fact that he got PETA and KFC to the table for discussion and is supportive of the progress KFC is making on animal welfare.
