TYT: (Graphic) Leaked Factory Farm Footage, & Humane Society CEO

WARNING: Skip to 1:12 if you want to hear the commentary without seeing the disturbing video.



Ana Kasparian and Desi Doyen discuss an undercover investigation by the Humane Society (also watch the video below that includes Human Society president and CEO Wayne Pacelle) into a pig factory farm in Wyoming and the shocking footage of animal cruelty recently released. How much power does the meat industry have in Congress?



Points from Wayne Pacelle (President and CEO of The Humane Society) on factory farming (WARNING: 7:09-7:26 and 10:08-10:28 includes disturbing factory farm footage), and Lee Camp (political comedian) on hydraulic fracturing (aka, 'fracking') are discussed by Mariana Tosca (actor and social activist), Armaiti May (veterinarian and activist), Adam Sakellarides (animator - Pictures In A row), and guest host Michael Shure (host - TwenTYTwelve).

That was over 20 years ago and was a major factor in our decision to go vegetarian.
