Pig of an issue..

I have just read this article and was surprised and saddened by it http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/science-environment-22098224.   While the article centres on the US this is not just a US issue.  Many farms across this country and the world are in the same state.  But is it sad to think that governments are more worried about people find out about the conditions on these farms than the farms themselves.  Choosing to criminalise the filming of undercover material. – Bit backwards perhaps?
