It's "An" owner of "A" Chick-fil-A. Not the CEO.

He’s a franchise owner

Which depending on how many stores he has, might actually make him a ceo etc.(usually, franchises are held in a llc or similar to protect assets of the owner from it going tits up or whatever. Usually each store is its own company, though a new location might be pooled together with an established one to feed assets while it becomes established.

Depending on how much media attention he gets… Chick-fil-A might force him to sell. For reference it takes 10k start up (and whatever else you need for the building and shit,)

Right, an owner of a Chick-fil-A or chain of them, but not THE owner/CEO of Chic-fil-A.

The title makes it seem that what's going on here.

I'm not defending Chick-fil-A, I'm just pointing out the shit title. I don't understand the love for Chick-fil-A and their overpriced mediocre chicken sandwiches.

Yes, that's important. I'm sure the victim is happier now that you've clarified that bit.
