Python Hunt

Python hunting in the everglades is now a sport and given a positive outlook. the following article is actually a video broadcast with the words written into text for the article. At first glimpse the
News_Video
came form CBS news so I would consider this article to be fairly reliable but with a strong bias of some kind. Directly from the video I could sense a sort of a play that the news broadcasters are trying to put on while giving readers information. This entire article was really harsh on the pythons and they were like Kill the Pythons. The interview of a Larry the cable guy look alike was over exaggerating life in the everglades. 0verall im all for the hunt of animals but I just hate the way this presented, they say the most pointless things for example this is quoted"We believe that the most humane method of killing the python is a blow by a machete," Really? If your going to kill something does it really matter how its done I know that tourture is unethical and I accept that but they say not to shoot the python, but to chop its head off. I really do not think that this article has a target audience besides late night viewers who have nothing better to do late at night.
