According to radical extremist group H$U$, they have received a $100,000 donation from Yellow Tail wines. They’re calling it the “tails for tails” program and the organizational logo will appear on Yellow Tail wine displays throughout the country through the end of March. The photo shows what one former product fan thinks of the donation decision.
Feel free to let Yellow Tail know your thoughts on their Facebook page. I have and unless they change their decision I have also removed them from my list of ZimmComm approved wines.
I certainly question Yellow Tail’s move as well and am very disappointed in their support of self-serving HSUS; however, every post I see online sending me to their Facebook page is a broken link and even then, when I individually search for their Facebook page it shows the last update being from 2008. We have done a good job raising awareness, especially through Twitter, but we need to make sure Yellowtail actually hears the volume of our concerns.
Best,

Not sure what you link problem is Corey. The one in this post to their Facebook page works fine. Lots of comments on there. Do you have a Facebook account?
you could also follow this link; http://www.ussportsmen.org/Page.aspx?pid=2292 and get the even more vital information. Get in touch directly with the American distributor of the wine. It’s more effective if you place a phone call or send a fax…they can’t avoid those methods as easily as pushing the delete button for emails.
contributing to hsus is a certain blow to the sportsmen! they, surely don’t know what they are contributing to…hsus would, in fact, like to see ALL HUNTING STOPPED…OUTLAWED…ENDED !!! i am sending a letter to anheuser-busch, also…they must not know of this…
yellow tail is distributed by deutsch and son, ltd, is also a distributor of busch and budweiser beers…THE ONES YOU DRANK DURING HUNTING SEASON, THAT WERE IN THE “CAMO” CANS.
YES, THEY KNOW IT’S DEER SEASON, AND THEY ARE TARGETING THE HUNTERS WHEN THEY PUT BEER IN CAMO CANS…why would deutsch and sons distribute beer in cans in “camo”, and contribute to an anti hunting organization, such as hsus?
i’m a member of the central florida dog hunters association…we are fighting anti-hunters, as well as us forestry, for closing roads in our forests…if anyone would like more info, give us some suggestions, or give some input, please check out our website http://www.cfldoghunters.org ,(we’ll even take donations).
I support Yellow Tail’s decision to donate to the Humane Society of the United States.
I would never support a domestic terrorist group. I would never support a group who aligns the U.S. meat production industry with the Holocaust.
I would never support anyone who thinks animal agriculture is evil. I would never support a group who lies to the public in order to swindle them out of their hard earned money for reasons and purposes other than what was expressed in their plea for the money in the first place. I would never buy a bottle of Yellow Tail wine.
I have written letters to the editors of every media I can find, and when I get back from taking care of hundreds of animals, like my family has done for 4 generations, and helping my son (9 year old 5th generation) doing his chores, I will find more media addresses to send more letters in protest of Yellow Tail decisions to end U.S. agriculture. My letters will also contain facts about HSUS and their lies and deceipt.
Have a great day.
thanks for the heads up. The yellow-tail blokes have blown it. Amazing to think a biz based in AG would donate to a group with a radical agenda that harms the very industry they are in.

There has been a lot of great talk about this issue among the agricultural industry but is someone pitching the story to mainstream media? It seems like a great story of how agriculture is using social media to give immediate feedback to Yellow Tail…I would hate for the story to end inside ag’s walls and not reach a larger group of consumers, thereby actually affecting Yellow Tail sales.
