9/16 - Alaska Controversy: Tony Knowles is getting seriously harassed in Alaska for being part of the Pew Ocean Commission

At first it seemed a little silly, but now the Bering Sea Fisherman's Association is lashing out against former governor Tony Knowles in his bid for a U.S. Senate seat. "Pew" seems to have become a dirty word in Alaska. In the meanwhile, the new political action group, Ocean Champions, is jumping into the thick of the issue and working on ways to help defend Knowles and the Pew Report.
