Sorry folks, I forgot to record the first episode of the Mike Tyson
pigeon show on AP so that I could foward through it to see who the
sponsors are. I was going to do it, and then list the sponsors here
for you. I'll put it on the record list for next week and will have
another go at it.

I see that Ellen had him on her show. I'm surprised, I mean Ellen
is an animal lover and a joy. Her show is upbeat and is for pure
entertainment. I understand if someone like Oprah would have Tyson on
her show because her job is to investigate and share important events
and people that affect our lives with her audience. This means
sometimes requires having a "bad someone" on the show. I admire that
she does draw a line however. Why would Ellen have this guy on her show
when its not needed?? I suppose she, along with so many, have no idea
about his past abuses with ferrets. I don't get why it takes death to
draw a line in the sand anyway. This guy has a life long resume of
hurting others. One chance after another being thrown away. That alone
should result in him getting shunned in our society.

I hope Mr Tyson really does "love" his pigeons. Carrying them around in
sacks ealier in his life doesn't sound so loving to me, I don't know. I
hope that he is trying to make himself a better human being. And it
should be supported if he is. But no one should be celebrated and
rewarded for anything after a life time of doing harm to others if you
ask me. I think Animal Planet should hold the highest of expectations
possible regarding animal welfare. If they don't, who will?
