Loretta Swit will guest star on the AM/FM/XM Satellite Radio broadcast of Animal Radio on May 8 at Noon EST and then rebroadcast on May 9 at 5PM EST.
The vegetarian actress best known for her role as Major Margaret “Hot Lips” Houlihan on M*A*S*H, is speaking out about the recent decision of the U.S. Supreme Court to strike down a law that would have made it illegal to market animal crush videos, films depicting animals being…well, crushed.
“These videos are usually sexual in nature and some pervert will buy them to get his gillie out of,” said Swit.
“It’s horrendous the imagination that would conjure up such an evil thing.”
Swit’s own pets live a life far from the animals in the videos, as she has animals with wheelchairs because they’re so old.
And she will talk to fans wearing fur coats about their decisions.
“It’s all about education. If someone comes up to me for an autograph and they’re wearing a fur-coat, before I sign, I will educate. Because sometimes, they simply don’t know 80 animals died for that coat.”
