320- What is PETA trying to achieve with these headlines?

Published 1 week, 4 days ago
Description

Peta calls for pork-free menus as Peppa Pig show rolls into Grimsby...PETA call to replace Aberaeron Mackerel Fiesta with cabbage...Peta 'wants vegan-only black pudding' at Bury championship...PETA calls for eggs to be swapped with potatoes at Preston's traditional Easter egg roll event...PETA attacks Nintendo over fur-wearing Mario...Animal rights group PETA calls for Warhammer 'fur' ban...

To name but a few...

We're not bashing PETA. We're just wondering; what's with these wacky headlines? Do they work? Do they cheapen the vegan cause? And do we just leave them to it? Anthony & Shane weigh up the pros, the cons and the faux fur plastic warhammer figurines in this episode.

We mention these news articles & campaigns in the discussion, amongst others...
