Burger King's 2Q profit grows

MIAMI Burger King Holdings Inc. said Thursday it expects to offer more value promotions like its controversial $1 double cheeseburger as it reported a 13.3-percent jump in second-quarter profit.

While Burger King franchisees have sued over the six-month $1 double cheeseburger offer, saying they were losing money on the promotion, the company said it helped drive traffic to its stores.
