"Hi. This is Joan Jett from The Blackhearts for PETA," starts the message. "Workers at a Butterball plant were recently documented punching and kicking live birds, slamming them against metal trailers, and worse. Please join me in calling Butterball's Turkey Talk Line to tell their operators that there is no appropriate way to cook a tortured bird." Jett goes on to give Butterball's number and offers to send callers free vegetarian starter kits. [Peta also reportedly has footage they gave to authorities showing workers sexually assaulting turkeys� no, we didn't make this up. The press release says "Another worker assaulted a hanging turkey by inserting his finger into her cloaca (vagina)." Think what you may about Peta etc but that's pretty damn sick. See full story]
