NYC Tourists Eye PETA’s Chicken Eyeball

This New Yorker usually steers clear of Midtown, thanks to the crowds, the horse-drawn carriages, and Macy’s.

But I’m willing to ride the jam-packed Q to Times Square because I’m excited to see PETA’s eye-popping McCruelty posters, which features an illustrated eye of a chicken who’s been scalded to death and have been plastered all over Midtown. These posters are a follow-up to last week’s Chi-town light show and are meant to pressure McDonald’s to implement new slaughterhouse technology that would eliminate the worst abuses of chickens killed for McNuggets.

If you’re like me, you’re wondering where our eye-catching ad will show up next. Maybe on a huge banner draped over the St. Louis Arch? Share your suggestions in the comments section below.
