Pammy sends videos to KFC stores
The following from PETA:
Four Sioux City KFC managers received a special delivery from Pamela Anderson this week. On behalf of PETA, the actor and animal rights advocate sent them her new explicit DVD showing what happens to chickens before they end up in batter, along with a letter asking them to urge David Novak—the CEO of KFC’s parent company, Yum! Brands—to eliminate the worst abuses of chickens, such as live scalding in defeathering tanks and breeding and drugging chickens to grow so quickly that they become crippled under their own weight.
Writes Anderson, “As a KFC manager, you can help make positive changes … by letting Yum! CEO David Novak know that you don’t want to sell—and the people of Sioux City don’t want to buy—chickens who have been crippled, abused, and scalded alive.”
Anderson points out that KFC ignored recommendations for animal welfare improvements made by its own advisory panel, including five members who have since resigned after being ignored for years. Former KFC advisor Adele Douglass told the Chicago Tribune that KFC “never had any meetings. They never asked any advice, and then they touted to the press that they had this animal-welfare advisory committee. I felt like I was being used.”
