This is the E-mail that I sent to Fox News this morning.
Fox News seems to take great pride in being "FAIR AND BALANCED" but they
blew that image Sunday and again today. I feel that anyone watching these
two segments were left with the impression that dwarfism is "VERY COMMON" in
the Miniature Horse industry. The owner claims that he is raising money for
children's charities and if that is true I give him credit for that, but his
failure to point out the fact that this is not an everyday occurrence in the
Miniature Horse industry is an abomination, in my opinion. He did mention
that he bred two normal Miniatures and this is what he ended up with, but he
failed to explain that this is not an every day thing.
I hope that Miniature Horse breeders will e-mail Fox News and let them know
that while this does happen occasionally dwarfism is not the norm in
Miniatures. Also that most caring Miniature Horse breeders that do
OCCASIONALLY have a dwarf born on their farm take care of them with lots of
love and medical attention, and NOT exploiting them.
I hope that Fox News will tell the "REST OF THE STORY" and let their
viewers know the whole truth about the Miniature Horse.
