None of us like seeing horrifying pictures of abused and neglected animals but I think it is important to at least take a quick glance at the link to grasp the level of animal that peta handles.
It is extremely important to know who peta's main detractors are and where pretty much most of the negative "facts" about them come from. The CCF Center for Consumer Freedom is a group of lobbiest working for the industries that are hurt when peta steps in for animal welfare. Center for Consumer Freedom - SourceWatch
The Center for Consumer Freedom (CCF) (formerly called the "Guest Choice Network") is a front group for the restaurant, alcohol and tobacco industries. It runs media campaigns which oppose the efforts of scientists, doctors, health advocates, environmentalists and groups like Mothers Against Drunk Driving, calling them "the Nanny Culture" |
CCF can turn fiction into fact like nobody's business. They are the definition of a propagandist group. I mean, this is a group that is *against* MADD bc it hurts the alcohol industry.
