Corporate Shill Richard Berman's Attack on the Humane Society


A short advertisement attacking the Humane Society of the United States was dropped during the Oscars last night.  It was paid for by the right-wing, pro-business shell organization called the Center for Consumer Freedom.  This organization receives money from all kinds of big business groups and specifically targets nonprofits who promote things like healthy diets, animal welfare, or stopping global warming.  Of course the center's biggest supporters are industrial agriculture groups which are pro-meat, pro-processed foods, and pro-corn syrup (among other icky things).
