I spoke with a guy a few months ago that had previously worked at a large commercial dairy farm in Oklahoma. With regards to the aforementioned cruelty, he mentioned nothing of the sort; in fact, he said that these cows live better than some people!
Moreover, I don't think any modern-day commercial farming company in the US could treat their animals as poorly as you describe simply because it is such a significant business risk. It would only take one PETA nut to expose the issue and have the whole thing blow up in the company's face. Credibility, of any type, typically takes a long time to build, but only a single action to destroy.
