The founder leaves the company after word that he used a racial slur in a conference call.

The company’s founder allegedly used a racial slur during a conference call with its marketing agency.

The company says it will serve only chicken raised without human antibiotics by 2022.

The chain has already worked with four municipalities on its Paving for Pizza program.

The pizza and games chain brings the service to more than 345 locations through various partners.

The pizza chain has closed more than 60 locations over the past year amid weak sales.

The chain is bringing beer delivery to nearly 100 locations in Arizona and California.
