Part of my thesis is that the "journalists" of today are agenda driven, with NO reporting skills at all - those that can report are afraid to upset their bosses and get fired, so they go along with the AGENDA - they are all (for the most part) COWARDS!! As proof - how many have had the stones to speak up against the bias that is the lifeblood of the msm (Lsm)?

ABC keeps John Stoessel around as he is a farmed in Conservative type, but there is no way these global elitists are going to tell the truth on the Cali fires as their cartel bosses want this and all things to evoke their dictatorship society of Amerika.
I have one more point in this. Point 1: Where are the fires burning?
MALIBU
Who lives in Malibu?
Rich, snotty, liberals who vote for pig nose Waxman types and Hillary and cheer Al Gore movies.
These twirps will not allow "any burning" to control brush and build their multi million dollar homes in brush pile canyons.
The end result is it rained loads before in the growing season. The autumn is dry and voila just like for thousands of years here comes the big windstorms getting rid of all of that brush.
Want to know what lives in brush?????????
Little creatures called rodents who eat weed and brush seeds. Get enough of these little varmints and you start getting diseases spreading like Arizona has happen periodically just like the plague.
All God is doing is is protecting idiot humans from themselves by burning all of this trash, so the water can come rushing down, cleanse the draws in the spring and then nature can grow good things like berry, nut and fruit plants for higher orders of beings than varmits.
It is just too bad half this nation doesn't get burnt off as it needs it immensely to cleanse it and set the cycles in line since logging is so banned now in most areas east and west all kinds of problems crop up.
The Governator should have just let these fires burn as it would not cost any more as the houses are burning up any way and it would have done a world of good for nature.
Global warming? That area has those fires at least once every year. If the people who live there don't cause the fires, they certainly contribute to them by choosing to have their homes there with all the fancy landscaping and shrubs. Those people had to know the fire risk. It's a tragedy, but man-made. And since that area has always been hot and dry, if an arsonist or terrorist wanted to start a fire, it would be very easy, I would think. Global warming? Baloney!
“One reason why we have the fires in California is global warming,” Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-Nev.) told reporters Tuesday, stressing the need to pass the Democrats’ comprehensive energy package.
June 2006....Reid said hurricane Alberto, which did little and was the first of that year, was more proof of global warming. Then 2006 had one of the smallest hurricane years ever.
Who's gonna apologize to who if THIS is the cause for a lot of these fires? Downed powerlines are the cause for several here in San Diego, but, up in LA there may be a different story. We had someone down here starting fires a couple of years ago. How can you defend against something like that??
so how is harry reid going to turn the arsonists actions were caused by global warmin?. i mean he spun the sore loser cease & desist letter to clear channel he compiled into a fairy story that it was the plan all the time to have it auctioned off by rush, so he will obviously spin that global warming was upsetting these arsonist asses and it drove them(because they're super aware environmentalists)to the point that they just had to take action to show the rest of us nonbelievers that global warming does exist by starting fires in areas that have been prone to large fires throughout history, but only now are they linked to global warming.
i guess now, according to harry reid, anytime i start my kingsford charcoal in my grill it's proving that global warming exists.
I would have voted with the majority here, but you can't underestimate the ignorance of media types. They may know fifty ways to roll a "doobie", but they don't have the brains God promised billy goats. And this is not due to not being provided the raw materials, it is just that the brain withers on the stem if it isn't used for years and years. So, if you are a reporter reading this (or having someone read it to you, more likely), start using your noggin for critical thinking, start with something small, like investigating cigarette company advertising claims (go ahead, you have the pack right there in front of you), before it dries up completely.

How could it be due to ignorance? The media are doing their best to propagandize for the left Democrats' marxist-socialist takeover of the United States, and this is just another tact. The media have been exposed to climatologists who contest the anthropogenic aspect of global warming, they choose not to publish the information. They are true believers in the Prophet Algore and are trying to convert as many as possible to the Church of Global Warming. God himself could boom down from Heaven that these fires have nothing to do with global warming, and they would put their fingers in their ears and yell, "lalalalalalala. I can't hear you!" It's not ignorance, but stupidity. Stupidity is willful, ignorance isn't.

It was a very difficult choice between choices two and four. It seems to me that they were allowed to kill two birds with one stone (oh wait, how insensitive was that to our avian brethern my apologies). However, given their overall bias I had to go with four. For anyone with even half a brain tied behind their back, the MSM is nothing more than a pack of running dogs doing their masters' bidding. What is so appalling is that they actually believe that they aren't. In anyone else, this type of behaviour would result in forced confinement in a mental hospital with massive amounts of psychotropic drugs.
