Apparently PETA is putting famous folks up to bashing SeaWorld now?
Credit to Rolling Stone for actually putting together a piece that gives both sides a real voice. It's a surprisingly good article to be honest. The statements from PETA and the various celebrities make me want to shoot myself though. For example...
From Pink's letter to the SEAS CEO:

From Pink's letter to the SEAS CEO:
This is the statement that to me is the trump card. Many animals kept in captivity too long for whatever reason have a low survival rate in releases or sanctuaries. Ending the breeding program was big step #1. Next will be to no longer bring in new whales.
There was never going to be an overnight “we don’t have orcas anymore” solution.
And IMO Pinks comments show the slanted biased views of PETA and what they make people believe.
There will always be a need for rescue facilities. And SWO has many animals that could never be released, because they sustained injuries that would make them incredibly vulnerable in the wild.
This is a very inconvenient fact and should be ignored because it interfears with the feels!
To be fair, wasn't meaning rescue. More breeding and bringing in healthy for no reason. Rescues that would struggle to live in the wild is ok and shouldn't be looked down upon.

Looks like Seaworld Orlando is going to be axed from Thomas Cook by the end of the year. Sad news.

This is a sad article. The part that got me is when they state that 69% of Southern Resident whales have failed pregnancies. That's a lot considering the number of animal activists that say orca miscarriages only happen at SeaWorld and never in the wild. Still, very sad.
That Mourning Orca Whale Mother Should Be a Wake-Up Call

It's always funny when a group that routinely kills animals post complaining as out a group that saves them.
Speaking of stupidity, look at this nonsense. PETA should focus on actual animal problems and not caged animals on packaging. I promise this article is not from The Onion... but it sure seems like it.
PETA was really concerned about caged animals on the Animal Crackers packaging, so the company removed them from their cages... ugh.

I moved all the posts from @MadridBot's latest thread about PETA's social media post to the Blackfish Backlash thread.
I see your point, but I'm also glad Animal Crackers took this step. If they removed the name "Barnum" I'd be even happier.
Thanks. I was attempting to delete the thread but couldn’t figure it out with the “new” website setup.
