Barbara Walters Contemplates Going Veg on ‘The View’
Anyone watch The View this morning, May 7? Lois, a member of the Humane League, emailed us this note today about today’s episode:
“Barbara Walters held up a copy of the newspaper, the New York Daily News. On the front cover is a photo of a baby cow that escaped a slaughterhouse. She announced that she is upset by the photo and is on her way to being a vegetarian.
“Any way that light can be shed on the plight of farm animals is much needed. I thought Ms. Walters was phenomenal at bringing attention to this. She spoke briefly, but added she is bringing a veggie burger to her Washington, D.C. trip this weekend. Kudos to Barbara!”
Thanks for letting us all know, Lois - and thanks for the veg promotion, Barbara!
The picture shown here, where a young calf is being treated like an escaped criminal, is the one that Barbara shared with View watchers this morning; read the accompanying article, “No bull, cow escapes slaughterhouse and hoofs it through Queens.”
