PETA's Thanksgiving Turkey Ad will not be air on NBC (Check Video)

The animals rights group PETA is known for its shock tactics and pushing the envelope with its ads. Past ads that networks refused to air include the “veggie sex” ad slated to run during the Superbowl, and Pamela Anderson’s stripping airport cop video. This ad, however, doesn’t use sex or naked people to make people squirm.

According to PETA’s blog:
When we first submitted our newest commercial to NBC in the hopes of running it during the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade, the station asked us to give more information about the cruelty behind turkey slaughter to back up the statements made in the ad. But even after we sent the network this New York Times article chronicling the grisly facts about turkey factory farming, it nixed the ad, claiming that “this commercial does not meet NBC Universal standards.”

    Josh, so what you’re saying is that we should just surrender to our baser, more primal, animal behaviors? So I should always just give in to any animal instincts? Boy, the jails would be mighty full then. That’s a lame argument. And about our freedoms and our bounty here – I agree, but with these great bounties and freedoms comes a great responsibility. Period. And the fact is, we eat way too much meat in this country. If we cut our meat consumption in half we’d still get too much protein and we may start to eat lower on the food chain which is just plain healthier. It’s a fact. No disputing it. Which leads to lower medical bills. And so on.

    Animals eat animals. We are not exempt; though in the US we have the luxury and bounty of choosing not to eat animals if that’s our preference. Let’s be thankful for that and ask anti-human PETA to shove their proselytizing.
