Guest guest Posted April 8, 1999 Report Share Posted April 8, 1999 This is a article in the Houston Chronicle today, also there was a note in the Briefcase about the BEEF TASK FORCE......... AP -- Attention task force: Beef is fatty, unhealthy Got a beef with the beef industry? You might want to keep it to yourself unless you want a visit from a new TEXAS BEEF TASK FORCE. the Texas and Southwestern Cattle Raisers Association is setting up a hot line for people in the beef industry to call if they hear anyone disparaging their products. Rob Hosford, spokesman for the FORT WORTH-BASED association, said the hot line and a related task force will focus mostly on the news media that air or print such comments from beef critics. " If we hear XYZ radio station carrying something about the beef industry, procedures and products that is derogatory, unfounded and untrue, with this task force we will send someone over there to RE-EDUCATE, so the next time they talk they'll be talking from the sight side of the ballpark, " Hosford said. The association's past president, Frates Seeligson, announced plans for the phone line at the group's 122nd annual convention last week in Fort Worth. " From now on, as far as Texas and Oklahoma are concerned, NO CRITICISM IS GOING TO GO UNANSWERED, " Seeligson said///// Yea right, I am still waiting............
