More garbage "journalism," painting the commercial fishing industry's wanton rape of 90% of the entire wild, Pacific salmon resource as a "fun" fact. Here's another "fun" fact: only about 10% of our population (the 10% that fish or have fished for salmon recreationally) has any clue about the realities of the commercial salmon industry, which explains how 90% of "Alaska's wild salmon" being "shared with the world" is widely thought to be a good thing. It all adds up to 100% bull$hit.

Obvious commercial propaganda right there. I truly believe the warm, fuzzy portrayal of commercial fishing as "feeding the world" is the biggest reason the status quo remains, year after year, despite outcry from those who know the truth.

Looks like the commercial fishing video contest advertised in the article is going to be a bit of a bust, in light of the news that prompted this thread....
