WGN’s ‘Man of the People’: Pat Tomasulo roasts the idea of Turkey Pardons by Presidents

Every year a turkey or two gets trotted out in front of the President who gets pardon them from the Thanksgiving feast that they have been destined to become, but WGN Morning News dude Pat Tomasulo roasted the whole concept in grand fashion on his weekly comedy show, ‘Man of the People’. The whole lighthearted concept gets the investigative bend revealing the ‘violent criminal pasts’ from these birds.  The creative use of stock turkey-chasing-people footage with the old chestnut of video weirdness, a car driving off a cliff.

Some turkeys especially in this Massachusetts news report from TMJ4 have legitimately terrorized entire communities. The whole pardon I give to turkeys, is when I have moved on to dessert.
