Quote:
The National Association to Advance Fat Acceptance (NAAFA) had expressed shock and outrage regarding the previous ad campaign from People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA). The billboards, scheduled to pop up near airports around the country, show a large man’s stomach poking out under his T-shirt with the headline, “Don’t Buy Two Seats—Go Vegetarian.”
After considerable public outcry regarding this billboard campaign, PETA announced the Fat Fliers campaign would be pulled. However, shortly afterwards, PETA announced a new campaign (which includes live appearances throughout the country) that pokes fun at a fat Elvis headlined “Don’t Be Cruel to Your Heart and Body.” The announcement of the program (found on PETA’s website) states "Although it’s been a quarter of a century since Elvis died on his porcelain throne, millions of fans remain loyal to America’s 'king,' inspired by his signature style and soulful music. And judging by their own broadening bellies and bottoms, they are putting away the same unhealthy, fattening foods that he did."

Why the Hate?
Elvis never wore fur, or really any natural fabric.
Elvis is famous for eating fried peanut butter, not steak.
And you know what, I think animals liked Elvis...
