Booing Salmon

Zeke Grader of the Pacific Coast Federation of Fisherman’s Associations submitted himself to a virtual lynching on the Sean Hannity show last week, as the host broadcast live in front of a mob of Central Valley farmers.

Grader gave as good as he got, but guess what? Everyone lost.

Mr. Hannity:

What about the North Coast fisherman who had been fishing for generations who can’t fish anymore?

Good find, Hank. Thanks.

And what about Sean Hannity? Anybody ever pause to think how all this noise affects Sean Hannity: that’s the most important point.

the salmon decline began in late 70s when the feds allowed high seas factory trawlers in our waters. Ask NMFS and NOAA!!!

Great performance from Mr. Grader. It’s difficult to argue with Hannity and his ignorant ilk, as they control the venue and format, but Mr. Grader held out admirably.

Shame on everyone in that mob behind Hannity.
