BREAKING NEWS – Miami, Florida – Burger King is here to scare its competition — and maybe its customers. The fast-food chain has revealed a new campaign, which not-so-subtly refers to its main competitor, McDonald’s, with a series of photos showing terrified children sitting on clowns’ laps. “Ask our manager about booking a clown-free party,” reads one of the ads. McDonald’s quickly responded by running an ad that reads “We know why the ‘Burger King’ is never with a queen?” And above the words is a picture of the Burger King dressed up as a priest, while smiling at an altar boy.
