National Geographic Channel’s new series Inside: Secret America shows Peabody Award-winning journalists Mariana Van Zeller and Darren Foster as they go undercover with Mercy For Animals investigators into some of the country’s largest farms.<\/p>\n
Titled “Animal Undercover,” the episode features MFA investigators “Pete,” who worked at a Burger King dairy supplier in Idaho, and “Jane,” who worked at a Butterball turkey factory farm in North Carolina. Both of these landmark investigations exposed abuse so horrific that multiple workers were charged and convicted of criminal cruelty to animals.<\/p>\n
Van Zeller and Foster also interview Matt Rice, MFA’s director of investigations, about the factory farming industry’s un-American efforts to silence whistleblowers and keep its criminal activities hidden from public view.<\/p>\n
