Discovery Channel is throwing its weight behind Senator John Kerry's Shark Bill, and has released a letter sent to Senator Kerry in a July 7, 2010 press release. Discovery Channel endorses The Shark Conservation Act of 2009 (S. 850), according to the letter release. The network references their hit special Shark Week, which airs during the first week of August, 2010.
The 23rd Annual Shark Week premieres on Discovery Channel on August 1, 2010. The popular non-fiction special is more than entertainment, it educates the public about the plight of this often vilified and misunderstood creature.
