First, a word to Cal, and anyone else who gets really upset with programs and postings here dealing with animal cruelty. If you get upset, please go to another thread.
The 'The Australian' tv reviewer, Stephen Romel, urges everyone to watch sbs-tv on Thursday at 8.30pm to see 'Piggy'. In fact he says it is one thing to read about medieval horrors of modern farming, but seeing and hearing is another matter, and he said that 'Piggy' is essential viewing.
He points out that 100 million pigs worldwide are killed each year at 25 wks of age, though it pales in comparison with the 8.25 BILLion chickens slaughtered annually to become KFC nuggets etc. Romel asks surely it is not anthropomorphism to believe that animals deserve better? He goes into a bit of detail of what appears on screen, but I won't repeat that here.
