NYT on Supreme Court's Navy Sonar Decision

As I'm sure you know, the Supreme Court ruled in favor of the Navy, lifting restrictions that would have saved whales from mass strandings, hemorrhaging around their brains and ears, and lesions in their vital organs. At least the New York Times, which has consistently been on the side of the scientists who have studied the whales rather than the Navy "experts" who ever actually did an impact study and deny the evidence, has come out once again against the Supreme Court.

I vowed to find some good news at least once a week. Does this count? Before you say NO how about defining good news as either good for animals directly, or indicative of a movement toward being better for them?

Maybe? Anyone . . . anyone . . . Bueller . . . Bueller . . .
