One of my friends from The Daily Illini sent me this link. As she said in her e-mail, "At best this is funny. At worst, it's animal cruelty."
Who says there's not a place for video in the online newsroom, let alone politics?

I don't think that this was very newsworthy and I'm surprised the Trib would waste time/money to do this piece. Maybe it's just not my kind of humor.
I did think it was interesting that the reporter was wearing a "Sausage Fest 2004" shirt. It's not necessarily that bad, but "sausage fest" has in recent years become a slang term for a bunch of men hanging out together or a crowd composed of mainly men.
Like I said, it's not that inappropriate, but it may have been something the editors may have missed.
I laughed harder about the shirt than the pig wearing lipstick.
I feel really bad for that pig. But she did look fabulous, didn't she?
