9/22/11: PETA to Start Porn Website

If you’re worried about animals, what’s the best way to get your message out? The group, People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals thinks the best way is to create a pornographic website to promote its animal rights and vegan diet message.

PETA spokeswoman Lindsay Rajt said in a telephone interview with CNS News.com that the Norfolk, Virginia-based group has applied with ICM Registry to launch the website peta.xxx.

Rajt says the website will feature graphic videos and photographs. She noted that PETA has used porn stars and nudity to get its message across in the past. She also says a pornographic site will allow PETA to reach a broader audience and that publicity about the site is just as important as the site itself.

PETA is looking at a November launch for its porn website.
