“Most people don’t think very much about the impacts of when they eat and those impacts are profound not only for our own health but for the well being of other animals and for the planet itself.”
“[Veganism] It’s good for us, it’s good for the animals and it’s good for the planet.”
—Gene Baur, president of Farm Sanctuary, one of the largest and well known sanctuaries for abused, rescued and neglected farm animals in the United States, during a recent appearance in Charleston, West Virginia.

Comments Off on Alec Baldwin “Here’s The Thing” Podcast Lets PETA VP Talk Vegan Sweets
Alec Baldwin is the host of a podcast series from WNYC called Here’s the Thing.
He regularly interviews entertainers, artists, policy makers and other movers and shakers in the industry, so an chat with Dan Mathews, vice-president for People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals, seems perfect for the station’s format.
The two discuss all of the standard issues PETA aims to cover, such as fur and animal testing, but when it comes down to getting the audience really interested, let’s face it–you have to talk about vegan desserts.
Mathews does get an occasional sweet tooth and can tell you exactly where to satisfy it.

Comments Off on Anthony Weiner Sexting Could Inspire Carlos Danger Vegan Wiener
Anthony Weiner‘s sexting scandal may actually turn into something good for vegans.
Randall Richards is the president and owner of Carlos Danger Weiners, a hot dog company with the name inspired by the representative’s screen name he took when allegedly sending erotic messages and pictures of himself to female supporters of his NYC mayoral campaign.
Because of their cholesterol and fat content, eating real wieners can lead to clogged arterties and impotence, hindering your abilities to promote little Danger. Richards was approached by PETA and asked if he could make a vegan Carlos Danger (wiener, not the Congressman).

Comments Off on Christie Brinkley Poses With Giant Fish And Son In The Hamptons
Christie Brinkley posed with the “Catch of the Day” during a fishing trip in the Hamptons with daughter Alexa Ray Joel and son Jack Brinkley-Cook. Although we’d like to think the catch is her sexy offspring, unfortunately, it’s the gigantic fish he’s holding.
