  1. There were some intelligent arguments in there but of course the classic paranoia of the “evil government” planting wolves there.

  2. I felt like they could have done a better job with this piece.

    They sent a reporter over to the Methow for a day or so and they advertised the story in the evening before the piece ran on the 11PM news. If they went to that trouble, it wouldn’t have hurt to go just a little bit more in-depth.

    1. Daniel,

      Aren’t you expecting a bit too much. We all know the purpose of shallow TV journalism is just to fill the dead time between advertisements, which is the sole why network/local TV even exists anymore – profit.

    2. Daniel Berg,

      Actually that is a long story for television news. A large number of studies show that while people say they trust television news the most, those who watch TV news for most of their news know less than those who read the newspapers for their news.

  3. FYI The lookout pack is in my back yard literally. I hear them and I have told a wildlife biologist about that too. There are also a huge pack of coyotes and two cougars too. And last year there was a cinnamon colored bear that chased the deer from my front yard. I am a wildlife artist and I am studying wolves for painting them and I am excited about the fact that they are in my back yard.
