American Radio Network NPR Promotes Greenland Narwhal Whale Slaughter

Cetacean Rights Support | 19.08.2009 13:12 | Animal Liberation | Bio-technology | Ecology | World

Greenland, the US, Japan, Iceland and Norway
are 5 countries admitting they still slaughter whales,
while Canadian and Dane fishermen do it secretly. NPR, "National Public Radio"
a network from whose administration the public has been excluded, on the 19th of
August promoted whale slaughter for several minutes.

Denmark and Greenland Killing Whales



The narwhals have been killed for their flesh,
because they eat fish, and for their ivory like tusk.

The tracking devices put on the whales by the Univ
of Washington and a Greenland institute facilitate
the killing.

Vivian Schiller, head of NPR and the producer of Morning
Edition gave NPR reporter Nell Greenfield Boyce several minutes to promote her bloody story, done entirely
from the point of view of whale killers. Renee Montagne, NPR
Morning Edition anchor with her daily support of the war
in Afghanistan, commented after the hunting promotion that the story
was 'cool'.

The Inuit of Iceland, Norway, and Alaska are involved in
whale slaughter. These people have the shortest life
expectancy in the world* from the intense animal flesh
consumption. Death is caused by the assault of animal
protein on the kidneys, animal fat upon the liver,
the long train of mercury, arsenic, chromium, pcb's, nuclear
radiation illegally dumped, and other toxic carcinogens.

Ever since George H W Bush's immoral illegal stupid and
expensive bombing of Iraq in the socalled "Desert Storm",
NPR's role as National Pentagon Radio has accelerated.
Vivian Schiller is the current head and is from the deforesting
warmonger NY Times.

*excluding deaths from famine, war, nature disasters, childhood
diseases, accident
