Cimategate v. 2.0 has been released, and although it's not a huge surprise to those who've been following the religious deception, some interesting material has cropped up. The latest dump very clearly demonstrates collusion between media and the "scientists" who at times actually vetted news stories prior to release. Particularly culpable in this latest round is the BBC:
... The emails – part of a trove of more than 5,200 messages that appear to have been stolen from computers at the University of East Anglia – shed light for the first time on an incestuous web of interlocking relationships between BBC journalists and the university’s scientists, which goes back more than a decade.
They show that University staff vetted BBC scripts, used their contacts at the Corporation to stop sceptics being interviewed and were consulted about how the broadcaster should alter its programme output.
In 2007, the BBC issued a formal editorial policy document, stating that ‘the weight of evidence no longer justifies equal space being given to the opponents of the consensus’ – the view that the world faces catastrophe because of man-made carbon dioxide emissions.
Of course, over here, the same situation is occurring: The Oregon American Meteorological Society’s event featuring Meteorologist Chuck Wiese, Climatologist George Taylor, and me on November 29 at OMSI was canceled at the last minute today due to pressure from local universities and others who were apparently upset that our skeptical perspective on Global Warming would interfere with their climate agendas and Federal funding.
Oregon Museum of Science and Industry (OMSI). What a laugh. More like Oregon Center of Politcs and Religion.
