Thye believe they've found the source of the contamination in the pet food recall this past week --

There was a rumor going around about this. I guess it's true but that doesn't explain how it got there.

Going to turn ABC on in 10 minutes and see if the Cornell news conference is broadcast.

Says the news conference is to be held at 1 p.m. Since the news release came out of NYC, I'm assuming that's 1 p.m. eastern time.

There is speculation on the anti-ar lists that this could have been intentional. Peta has a standing lawsuit with Iams because they test their foods in develop ment on animals. (duh it is animal food!)

Just hear a blurp on the radio at 1:05 pm that the news conference is scheduled within the hour. I think it said ABC is scheduled to broadcast.

If it was PETA--all I can say is that's highly ironic. I hope they have the warm fuzzies about the dogs that died.

Has anyone seen the broadcast? Where does it report that it was PETA?

I see the ABCnews.com site says to watch for the report tonight with Charlie Gibson. I got called away from the office today so didn't get to turn the TV on and listen for the news conference.

I see the ABCnews.com news release says they are not certain there was only one contaminant.

I think I would look at the quality of ingredients in the dog food I was feeding. I have one on Canidae All Life Stages, and I do like that the meat ingredients are human grade and I do see there is no wheat gluetan, and also that the rice they use is tested for pesticides.
