Everyone Loves A Burger, But No One Wants To See The Cow

I thought this was a good way of using the media to get a great point across. Lush, a fresh handmade cosmetic company, have a strong stance on how they treat testing on animals and animal cruelty. What they did in this video, is have an artistic performer sit in front of the shop window and have it look as though she is treated like an animal who is being tested on.

The result was that passing shoppers were horrified, calling the police, and taking pictures to show authorities. It was a brilliant way to show that this is happening behind close doors whether we like it or not and we need to take a stand against it. I thought this was good because you never see the horrors of animal testing, not because its too cruel, no, I think its because the companies will be at a loss of money once they are shamed, and sadly, they are a part of a cruel system that will do anything for profit

I think if the media shown the truth about certain topics a lot more would be done. There is protecting the people, and then there's lying to them...which do you think is being done?
