The word is out about PETA’s rampant hypocrisy. If you were watching Fox News yesterday, or listening to Rush Limbaugh’s radio program, you heard about our shocking report that shows how PETA killed 95 percent of the adoptable pets in its care last year.
Limbaugh said:
"Today the nonprofit Center for Consumer Freedom published documents online showing that People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals, PETA, killed 95 percent of the adoptable pets in its care during 2008. Ninety-five percent of the adoptable pets in its care wiped out, murdered by PETA. How about making Michael Vick the spokesman for PETA? Sounds like a good mix.”

And then during the "Political Grapevine" segment of Fox’s Special Report With Bret Baier, the news traveled even further:
And a consumer group says the People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals isn’t exactly animal-friendly. The nonprofit Center for Consumer Freedom cites public records in accusing PETA of using its euthanasia program to kill almost six pets every day which works out to 95 percent of the adoptable pets in its care last year. David Martosko, CCF research director, writes: "PETA hasn’t slowed down its hypocritical killing machine one bit, but it keeps browbeating the rest of society with a phony ‘animal rights’ message."

The news is spreading about this phony animal-rights charity. If it means that even more people will catch wind of our petition to strip PETA of its tax-exempt status, we’d even welcome coverage in Vegetarian Times. But we’re not holding our breath.
