The Four Color Media Monitor

Because if we're going to try and stop the misuse of our favorite comics and their protagonists by the companies that write and publish them, we've got to see what both the printed and online comics news is doing wrong. This blog focuses on both the good and the bad, the newspaper media and the online websites. Unabashedly. Unapologetically. Scanning the media for what's being done right and what's being done wrong.


PETA outrages parents with revolting comic about cow mistreatment

CBS News reports:
Parents say they are considering taking PETA to court over an innocent-looking comic handed out to children at Calabash Elementary School in Woodland Hills that contained graphic images of mutilated cows, CBS Los Angeles reports.

Claire Borsheim and many other parents at the Woodland Hills campus were outraged after PETA handed out the pamphlets to their children the same day a baby cow was on campus for a lesson about dairy farming.

The pamphlet appeared to be a cartoon comic and was titled “A Cow’s Life,” but the images inside were horrifying, parents said.

“My 6-year-old daughter was handed one of these comics, saw the insert of the mutilated cow that I ripped away right away, she started flipping through it and saw pictures of baby cows being electrocuted, factory farms with machetes, I mean, just graphically horrifying images for a 6 year old,” Borsheim said.

“The images are pretty graphic,” parent Shawn Belschner said. “They’re of mutilated cows, infected cows, cows being dehorned, cows in bad conditions. I don’t think it’s good for any child.”
PETA is already a pretentious organization, and according to this info, has to shoulder some blame of their own for the harm caused to animals. They even blamed the victim of a bear mauling for the injury it caused her. No responsible parent who cares about their children's health should allow PETA to foist their propaganda on them.

    PETA = People Eating Tasty Animals.

    In all seriousness, they're a bunch of hypocritical loons who kill pets when they can't find owners for them.

    Some people try way too hard to get a point across. Case in point: them ripping off Upton Sinclair's The Jungle.
