Media Still Firmly Behind Climate Scare Tactics

There were two conferences on climate change recently. The first was an "an emergency summit on climate change" that was simply a scare mongering series of sessions from government-funded scientists who fed the media sound bites that none of them bother to check against the actual science and facts. This conference was widely covered by all media groups.

The second was organised by the Heartland Institute under the title "Global Warming: Was It Ever Really A Crisis" This NY event was attended by some very senior and well respected scientists that tore apart the false claims of the "Consensus" and was not covered in many places including the UK and locally.

For what I can only imagine is the belief that scary stories sells news, the issues raised at the NY event like the fact that sea levels are only rising 3mm a year in line with the last 200 years, is ignored. Not news worthy I guess.

So, when all of this finally comes out in the wash and the causes of climate change and the effects are shown to be media pushed myths will the media step up and take responsibility. Will they for example admit responsibility for the loss of jobs due to the ETS schemes?

I doubt it. They will cry foul at the "misinformation they were given." You know the misinformation they accepted without checking the basic facts.
