Wow! In my rush of assimilating all of the economic woes and weather related news of the day, I almost missed this little tidbit of information...
PETA approached NBC about doing a Super Bowl ad!!
Odds are that they weren't really all that serious, as you can see from the video of their commercial. But I liked how the articles' author asked a very pointed question...is it okay to exploit women in order to save animals??
(Seriously...I did visit the webpage strictly for the article!)
This is not the first time that PETA has resorted to the use of scantily-clad or even nude women in order to generate publicity for it's "work". Nude models refusing to wear fur and nude women in cages are just a few of the stunts they have used in the past. The animal rights group Win Animal Rights (WAR) also stages protests of fur, but as you can see, they focus less on the clothing optional route and more on the hurl insults routine.
Don't get me wrong...I won't turn away from looking at a scantily clad woman, but I don't think the sight is going to make me dispose of the T-bones I bought for dinner tonight...
