Australian newspaper buckles to
Sea Shepherd bullying
The Daily Telegraph an Australian newspaper on 24 December,
2015 published an article titled “Shark Wits,” on their front page. The front page article was accompanied with a
photograph of Sea Shepherd’s circus flag.
The article addressed the situation concerning shark
attacks. In some regions to protect
bathers (remember this is summer in Australia) nets are placed supported by
drums to keep the nets at the waterline.
These are known as drumlines which block sharks and protect humans. An unfortunate residual of these nets are
some sharks and other marine creatures get caught up in the nets.
It is because of this “bycatch” of dimwitted sharks and
unsuspecting sea creatures that have
so-called animal protection (animal rights / animal welfare) advocates
demanding the nets be removed. The cult
group, floating circus Sea Shepherd being one of them.
The article “Shark Wits” reported damage to the nets and alludes
to perhaps Sea Shepherd had something to do with the tampering. The article did not outright accuse Sea
Shepherd, but mostly quoted others. The
clowns of that cult group being thin skinned demanded The Daily Telegraph
remove the article from their website.
The Daily Telegraph illustrating that journalism in
Australis, just like in the United States, is a façade and dutifully acquiesced
to Sea Shepherd’s bullying by removing the offending article. Journalist integrity anyone?
