Washington post article on vegetarianism and its antogonists

[Guest guest]

From " My Week As a Vegan. "

" Lunch is easy. I go to High Noon, a new

soup-salad-sandwich bar downtown. I have a salad with

tofu, tomatoes, avocado, carrots, olives and a small

container of vegan split-pea soup. Girly food, but I

feel full. "

 

Girly food? Cute.

ABC DEPICTS TOBACCO FLACK RICK BERMAN AS A HERO IN THE

WAR AGAINST " ECO-TERRORISM "

http://abcnews.go.com/sections/us/DailyNews/ecoterror_support020226.html

Rick Berman started ConsumerFreedom.com with

$900,000 from the Philip Morris tobacco company. He is

waging a corporate-funded smear campaign against

public health, environmental and animal welfare

organizations and the non-profit foundations that fund

them. Berman scored a PR coup today with a prominent

ABCnews.com story casting him as a hero in the fight

against " eco-terrorism. "

According to the ABC story, " What (Berman) came to

the (Congressional) hearing advocating was that the

government wage war against domestic terrorism the way

the war has been waged against accused terror

mastermind Osama bin Laden's al Qaeda network not

just by going after those who carry out illegal acts,

but by trying to cut off financial support for

organizations identified as being terrorist. " ABC

neglected to explain that Berman is a PR lobbyist

who is paid a great deal of money to smear, attack and

disrupt the funding of public interest groups disliked

by his corporate clients in the food, tobacco and

booze industries.
