Weather Channel "group think"
Weather Channel Founder Blasts Network; Claims It Is 'Telling Us What to Think'
Excerpt:
“The Weather Channel had great promise, and that’s all gone now because they’ve made every mistake in the book on what they’ve done and how they’ve done it and it’s very sad,” Coleman said. “It’s now for sale and there’s a new owner of The Weather Channel will be announced – several billion dollars having changed hands in the near future. Let’s hope the new owners can recapture the vision and stop reporting the traffic, telling us what to think and start giving us useful weather information.”
The Weather Channel has been an outlet for global warming alarmism. In December 2006, The Weather Channel’s Heidi Cullen argued on her blog that weathercasters who had doubts about human influence on global warming should be punished with decertification by the American Meteorological Society.
Coleman also told the audience his strategy for exposing what he called “the fraud of global warming.” He advocated suing those who sell carbon credits, which would force global warming alarmists to give a more honest account of the policies they propose.
“[I] have a feeling this is the opening,” Coleman said. “If the lawyers will take the case – sue the people who sell carbon credits. That includes Al Gore. That lawsuit would get so much publicity, so much media attention. And as the experts went to the media stand to testify, I feel like that could become the vehicle to finally put some light on the fraud of global warming.”

Great article. I hope the global warming hoax keeps on being exposed for the fraud it is. Unfortunately in MN I think the governor has been duped because he seems to buy right into it. Either that, or he knows it's a fraud but is playing along with the game because McCain is. I don't know his heart, obviously, so I have no clue.
ReplyDeleteIn any event, global warming is simply a tool, in my opinion, used to push an agenda of socialism. Global warming itself is simply the agent used to push this agenda. It could have been global cooling or anything else.
