Media Scare Tactics and Manipulating Law - Center for Biological Diversity

It has been no secret that once the Center for Biological Diversity trashed the oyster farm, they would go after the ranchers.

Here is a simple explanation of their disturbing tactics.

"Self-description: As the country's leading endangered species advocates, the Center for Biological Diversity works through science, law, and creative media to secure a future for all species, great or small, hovering on the brink of extinction.
Actual: Anti-industry legal attack group uses the Endangered Species Act and media scare tactics as a weapon to destroy America's industrial strength and resource production by bringing lawsuits against a wide spectrum of resource use companies, private property owners and against government to stop resource use. The Center for Biological Diversity lost a 2005 defamation lawsuit to fifth-generation rancher Jim Chilton of Arivaca, Arizona, when a jury awarded him $600,000, including $500,000 in punitive damages for falsely accusing him of damaging the range. The Center appealed the decision to the Arizona State Supreme Court and lost again in 2007" - from "Undue Influence"

Trainer's Friend Writes Book Without Interviewing Protagonists

Trainer's friend did not once take the time to call up Kevin Lunny or Corey Goodman and ask for their side of the story yet writes a "non fiction" story in which they are the central characters and calls it a true story. Claims to it to be the "true," but also claims she was there from the beginning and throughout. She was not even 2 years old in the beginning, 39 years ago, and lived in another part of the county, miles from the oyster farm and schools where the Lunny family was and is a major contributing part of the community. The Lunny family is highly respected. But how would she know that? She didn't even talk with them.

Brennan lived in New York while the real battle was waged. Based on her previous writings, compulsive prevarication is likely to be the basis of this yet-to-be-released hit piece. What editor or publisher will let her get away with that?

Trainer, with a reputation a mile long for sneaky tricks, inventing false allegations and being a flat-out liar, was her friend and, based on the synopsis below, was a major source for this piece of landfill. Should save the trees, Brennan.
