Factory Farms on Oprah

I was flipping around channels looking for sports highlights and started watching a late-night episode of Oprah that put a spotlight on factory farming--one reason I don't eat meat and only buy cage-free eggs. Most Americans never even think about where their food comes from, and hopefully the power of Ms. O will change that. Check it out here and, if you can stomach it, follow up with PBS's take on Modern Meat.

Why is the topic on Oprah's show? Californians vote on Proposition 2 on November 4, which would regulate conditions for farm animals to prevent cruelty. Whether you're for or against factory farming, this is your chance to be heard. I won't tell anyone what to think or how to vote, but I can say that I'm voting yes.
