I know I went a little overboard in my rant (at the very least, in in the fact that I generalized about meat-eaters the way they sometimes generalize about us), but I suppose that my emotional response is exactly why I'm vegetarian. The article you shared helped remind me that not all media is misleading. :-) Thanks for the balancing article.
