If you think climate change being attributed to humans is a hoax, this article may be of interest to you:
?Hot & Cold Media Spin: A Challenge To Journalists Who Cover Global Warming? (http://epw.senate.gov/speechitem.cfm?party=rep&id=263759)
A excerpt:
MEDIA COVERAGE OF CLIMATE CHANGE:
Many in the media, as I [Senator James Inhofe] noted earlier, have taken it upon themselves to drop all pretense of balance on global warming and instead become committed advocates for the issue.
Here is a quote from Newsweek magazine:
?There are ominous signs that the Earth?s weather patterns have begun to change dramatically and that these changes may portend a drastic decline in food production? with serious political implications for just about every nation on Earth.?
A headline in the New York Times reads: ?Climate Changes Endanger World?s Food Output.? Here is a quote from Time Magazine:
?As they review the bizarre and unpredictable weather pattern of the past several years, a growing number of scientists are beginning to suspect that many seemingly contradictory meteorological fluctuations are actually part of a global climatic upheaval.?
All of this sounds very ominous. That is, until you realize that the three quotes I just read were from articles in 1975 editions of Newsweek Magazine and The New York Times, and Time Magazine in 1974. http://time-proxy.yaga.com/time/archive/printout/0,23657,944914,00.html
They weren?t referring to global warming; they were warning of a coming ice age.
Let me repeat, all three of those quotes were published in the 1970?s and warned of a coming ice age.
