We should probably call him “Brian the Turkey Slayer.”
Brian Tomes, the man slaughtering turkeys behind Sarah Palin in the infamous video that has earned itself over 2.2 million hits on You Tube alone (PETA must be proud), has finally been hassled by the media.
If you haven’t seen Palin interviewed while some guy nonchalantly murders turkeys in the background yet, watch it now.
The hard-hitting bastion of high journalism that is Inside Edition got to him first:
Brian Tomes says he was just doing his job and "things happen."
That’s very informative.
Tomes was going about his gruesome task of slaughtering turkeys as Palin gave a TV interview, talking about her Thanksgiving plans.
Wherever animals are suffering, she’ll be there.
The farmhand told INSIDE EDITION he didn't realize he could be seen as Palin was speaking."I thought they had panned in on her face…I did try and block the process," he says.
We figured as much.
This is our favorite part:
He says Palin is being unfairly criticized over the video. "The only thing I can say is, 'Don't mess with my Governor!'"
