Consumers Respond to TV Ads Exposing Animal Rights Group's Ties to Arson and 
Domestic Terror Organizations 
WASHINGTON, Jan. 26 /PRNewswire/ -- In its first week, an online petition 
aimed at revoking the federal tax exemption of People for the Ethical Treatment 
of Animals (PETA) has already attracted the support of more than 10,000 
consumers. The nonprofit Center for Consumer Freedom (CCF) launched the petition and 
two national TV commercials on January 19, after learning that the U.S. 
Internal Revenue Service is investigating PETA at its Norfolk, VA headquarters. 
Since PETA pays no federal income taxes, American taxpayers provide the radical 
group with over $3 million in subsidies every year.
