With Friends Like These, Mother Earth Needs No Enemies

Can’t figure out why an increasing number of Americans doubt the threat of climate change? Well, check out where they’re getting their information.
From John Horgan in Scientific American:
Two sources at the Science Times section of the New York Times have told me that a majority of the section’s editorial staff doubts that human-induced global warming represents a serious threat to humanity.
Environmental advocates have long bemoaned the “on the one hand, on the other hand” journalistic approach that lends equal credence to scientific consensus and global warming denials. But even the bemoaners probably didn’t suspect the Times’ true bias.

I would agree that if even some of the NYT's editorial staff believe that we are currently experiencing catastrophic warming. with the looming melting of the Himalayan glaciers, Pacific islands already disappeared, both the Arctic & Antarctic melting & smoking being a major cause of it (all things climate alarmists have claimed & all totally untrue) theny they are indeed biased.
On the other hand in the interests of balance I would say that if much of the NYT editorial staff believe in the Tooth Fairy & are trying to put Tooth Fairy stories on the fron page they are also biased. Albeit not as badly.
Catastrophic global warming is a lie, There is no “scientific consensus” on it & every politician & journalist who is in any way intelligent knows it & every one of them who is in any way honest says it.
