@Sheril listened to the Radiolab episode on this. Super interesting and sad. One thing this does is prevent the crabs from being harvested as chum by fishermen, which was being done before the blood protein was known about. They are caught, blood is collected, they are cleaned, screened, snacked and returned to the ocean. They are worth way more alive.
@johngreen please John! We need you here!
Frankly this has been a terrible experience. You have all been so mean to me and so aggressive. I will not stand for it, and you will be hearing from my lawyer, the venerable Luigi Esq., soon.

See the attachment for Josh Marshall's apt description of "both sides" journalism.

As I've said before, "both sides" is not primarily a truth-seeking practice, but a refuge-seeking one.

"Press bias avoidance" as Josh calls it, is not about depicting what happened. Not in the main, I mean. Rather it's a pre-response by journalists to criticisms they have anticipated or internalized.
