Tonight's episode of the hit FOX television show "Bones" (airing at 8 p.m./7 Central), starring vegan actress and Farm Sanctuary supporter Emily Deschanel, will prominently feature factory farming footage secured by Farm Sanctuary, the nation's leading farm animal protection organization, as part of a plot-line surrounding a murder that takes place at a chicken farm.
The footage, which was requested by Deschanel, will educate thousands of mainstream viewers about the cruel conditions animals are forced to endure on factory farms. The episode also features a character who rescues a pig and asks her coworkers for donations so that she can sponsor her at a sanctuary.
To further raise awareness of the horrors of factory farming, FOX is featuring a special message from Deschanel on its website (fox.com/bones) urging people to support Farm Sanctuary by sponsoring an animal in need.
