View Full Version : Sac Bee Article Regarding Amonia as a Cause for DEC

I realize that there are a number of things working in combination that, as a whole, are the cause of the Delta Ecosystem Collapse. So, why does "Amonia" get a Sunday front page headline?

Two things are certain IMO:

1) We'll never see a headline on the front page of a major newspaper stating, let alone even mentioning, that record levels of ill timed water exports is a cause of the fishery collapse AND

2) DWR, BuRec, NOAA, et al. will play this out long enough so that any and all reasons for the DEC are surfaced, EXCEPT the obvious, water exports.

Sheesh. :roll:

Today's headline and article was just another example of poor journalism and sensationalism by a poor quality paper that never gets the whole story straight.

I edit this as I see the local TV news have picked up the story too. Of course, lacking any depth, history, or recount of the entire situation.

I guess the flip side is that there is at least some 'journalism' ocurring over the collapsed fisheries, etc. I am happy for that at least.
