If Steve Irwin harasses wildlife during filming and the ratings went up mainly because of that reason: it is we, the audience, fault.
If Steve Irwin harasses wildlife on and off camera, then he is not that great of a guy after all. The way to educate can be done in so many ways.
Peta is a cult disguised as people who loves animals. They are also a bunch of hypocrites, blasting shock factor of animal testing and factory farming to get the audience on their side. Yea, animal testing sucks but we got penicillin, vaccines and many other treatments and cures, the same treatment I bet the CEO at one time or many times of her life and her loved ones relied on to stay healthy and alive. Yea, factory farming sucks so do something constructive about it like buying land and advocate for more humane way of farming. Oh wait, they are vegetarians so factory farming or not it would still not be acceptable to them.
For what it is worth, Steve Irwin did something remarkable. He made a lot of fans and people started to look at reptiles in a better light.
