Hi Torin,

We quite often skip over difficult to read sections in the comments, as written text often doesn't translate to audio that well. I have been know to skip comments entirely when they are too long. That said all the comments are on a RSS feed, on the website, are linked in the Community News Show notes and on the episodes, so if anyone cares they are there. 

In your case I didn't read it out as the descriptions you used might cause distress to younger listeners. This is allowed under our long standing policy https://hackerpublicradio.org/about.html#not_moderated
"The audio of your show will not be moderated." ...  We do not vet, edit, moderate or in any way censor any of the audio you submit, we trust you to do that. ...Please note that this only relates to the audio you upload. The rest of the meta-data, are managed by the HPR Community, and may be edited.

I felt that reading "Alas, the fate of male chicks in the egg industry is horrific" was enough to get the point across. The other words used are also in the show notes of this episode.
"[mass maceration / mass suffocation / mass gassing]" 

We get a lot of people trying to push their products and opinions here on the comment section. Of your 10 comments, 30% are "pushing" a Animal Welfare agenda. I'm not disagreeing with you views, I'm trying to figure if you are here for the tech or here for the platform. That is why it's important to introduce yourself to the community. You can imagine that I will be more likely to read a flyer given to me by the person who runs the coffee corner at my hacker space, than from someone who shoves a leaflet in the door. 

As for pronunciation, if you don't like it, then join the Community New show yourself. We record the Community news on the Friday before the first Monday of the month.

Ken.
