What Else Can You Do?Besides contacting the corporations that give money to the CFD Rodeo, you can keep the spotlight on the cruel realities of this rodeo by contacting the local papers. The Wyoming Tribune-Eagle published a ground-breaking article exposing the CFD in 2006. Please write a big “Thank-You” to the Wyoming Tribune-Eagle and reporter Cara Eastwood (email: outdoors@wyomingnews.com) for having the tenacity and journalistic integrity to finally expose the inherent abuse in the Cheyenne Frontier Days Rodeo. There will be strong pressure from the Rodeo Mafia on both of these papers, and the local media needs to know that the public wants compassion more than cruelty. Encourage these newspapers to continue to follow this issue of cruelty and corruption within the Cheyenne Frontier Days. Point out that the ShameOnCheyenne.com website is a hard-hitting resource of graphic images from the 2005 CFD. Urge the editorials to demand that the PRCA be held accountable for the actions, or inaction, of their people and the treatment of the animals they use.
