The Point - Factory Farming, Fracking, and 49ers (WARNING: Brief Graphic Content)

WARNING: 7:09-7:26 and 10:08-10:28 includes disturbing factory farm footage



Points from Wayne Pacelle (President and CEO of The Humane Society) on factory farming (WARNING: 7:09-7:26 and 10:08-10:28 includes disturbing factory farm footage), and Lee Camp (political comedian) on hydraulic fracturing (aka, 'fracking') are discussed by Mariana Tosca (actor and social activist), Armaiti May (veterinarian and activist), Adam Sakellarides (animator - Pictures In A row), and guest host Michael Shure (host - TwenTYTwelve). The group also discusses the encouragment letter a 7-year-old boy sent to San Francisco 49ers player Kyle Williams who received hatemail that included death threats after he lost a critical fumble in the NFC Championship loss to the New York Giants who are headed to the Super Bowl to face the New England Patriots.
