Foie Gras Protest planned for New Year's Eve

Post #1 - December 28th, 2006, 5:13 pmHi,
I remember when the news memorialized events which already occured. Now the news helps round up people in advance of the event. I guess to make it a news event when it might not be otherwise.
Reported on the news today of a plans to protest restaurants still serving fatted goose liver aka foie gras. Animal rights activists will be at X/O Restaurant at 7:30 PM on News Year's Eve.
While XO was highlighted. It wouldn't surprise me if they have plans to protest elsewhere.
XO Chicago
3441 N Halsted St
Chicago, IL 60657

Post #2 - December 28th, 2006, 5:16 pmThere was a story on the news yesterday about a large number of high end restaurants that were planning on serving foie gras on New Years Eve, Aldermen be dammed. This story was probably a feeble attempt to counter the first story. Media Wars...you gotta love it.Steve Z.

interesting how the newsmedia is working in this case! The Chicago Reader has also been blogging about foie in Chicago recently.
