from IDA:

"Schumacher Furs has a new ad on TV and it is airing on all 3 network stations in the Portland area. Please call these stations and let them know you find these ads offensive and that they are actually promoting animal cruelty by airing them.

Channel 2 KATU: 503-231-4200
2153 NE Sandy Blvd., Portland, OR 97232

Channel 6 KOIN: 503-464-0600 and ask to speak with the Manager
222 SW Columbia Street, Portland, OR 97201-5899

Channel 8 KGW: 503-226-5000 and ask for Programming
1501 SW Jefferson, Portland, OR 97201-2549

These stations have complaint categories regarding raciness versus ethical/animal issues and they are tracking these so please call! They DO care what the public thinks!

Talking Points:

1) Over 40 million animals are killed for fur each year.
2) Many of them are caught in painful traps and suffer for days before they are killed
3) There are no laws to govern how animals on fur farms are treated or killed
4) Millions of animals are raised in tiny, unsanitary cages with
no veterinary care
5) These animals are killed inhumanely by bludgeoning,
strangulation, gassing or anal/genital electrocution.

Thank you for caring enough to ACT! In Defense of Animals!!!
