Giving In to Terrorism in the UKA magazine has
agreed to stop running advertisements for a pharmaceutical company after being attacked by animal rights activists.
One website for a group calling itself The Covance Campaign read: “The Big Issue have recently printed an article regarding the relevance of animal testing and the fraudulent results gained. So after this, as strange as it seems, The Big Issue are willing to advertise for the vivisection company Covance.”
Richard Brown, managing director of The Big Issue in the North, said that the magazine had no option but to withdraw the advertisements because they could not put the safety of vendors at risk.Give in to the terrorists and you'll just get more demands.
