Seafood NZ, the industry body that represents New Zealand’s commercial fishing interests, put out one of the most mind-bogglingly tone deaf press releases recently in response to the new David Attenborough documentary, ‘Ocean’.

Their response to the documentary, which highlights the dangers posed by bottom trawling and industrial fishing, was to claim that the way that New Zealand performs bottom trawling would somehow make for a great birthday present for Sir David.

The Seafood NZ responses presented in this video are REAL QUOTES from THEIR OWN press release. THE CONTENT LITERALLY WRITES ITSELF!
