Netverjar í hvalalosti ausa svívirðingum yfir Íslendinga
Stemningin gagnvart Íslandi á samskiptamiðlinum Twitter hefur heldur betur súrnað síðustu sólarhringa.
Sé leitað að myllumerkinu #Iceland koma alla jafna upp gríðarlega jákvæðar umsagnir og myndir af náttúrufegurð Íslands. Það er hins vegar breytt eftir að fregnir bárust af því að Íslendingar hefðu veitt sjaldgæfan hval.
Stór hluti þess sem hefur verið sagt um Ísland á Twitter undanfarna daga er ekki beint fallegt. Fjöldi fólks keppist við að ausa svívirðingum yfir land og þjóð. Hér er smá sýnishorn.

Kristján handviss um að hvalurinn sé blendingur
Ég er algjörleg viss um það að þetta sé blendingshvalur segir Kristján Loftsson forstjóri Hvals.
„Hversu oft langar ykkur að sjá þetta?“
Náttúruverndarsamtökin Sea Shepard hafa sent frá sér áróðursmyndband gegn hvalveiðum Hvals hf., sem endurvaktar voru í sumar.
Segir heiminn ekki skilja hvers vegna við stundum enn hvalveiðar
Framkvæmdastjóri Eldingar hefur áhyggjur af ímynd Íslands.
