PETA’s shameful attempt at leveraging the tragic death of Tim McLean for animal rights has caught the attention of influential gossip site TMZ.com.

The site points out that local Winnipeg papers have chosen not to run the ad PETA is pushing and also links to the organization’s blog where the ad is currently displayed.

In typical TMZ fashion, with no respect for the incident at hand, the title reads: PETA: Beheaded Man Tastes Just Like Chicken.

Classy.
