Guest guest Posted February 17, 2001 Report Share Posted February 17, 2001 Animal Activists Condemn Pig Killing on 'Survivor' By Doug Young February 16 2001 LOS ANGELES (Reuters) - A graphic display of a wild pig being slaughtered on the latest episode of the hit CBS reality series ``Survivor'' has animal lovers seeing red, even as the show skewered the competition on Thursday night. Before showing the scene reminiscent of something out of William Golding's " Lord of the Flies, " CBS flashed a cautionary message to TV viewers nationwide: " The following scene contains material that may be unsuitable for young viewers. Viewer discretion is advised. " Viewers then saw members of the Kucha tribe close in on a wild pig, which is stabbed repeatedly by knife-wielding software publisher Michael Skupin until it dies. http://dailynews./h/nm/20010216/re/leisure_survivor_dc_1.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
