Chivalry Still Alive: AP Gives Larry's But Not Laurie's Age in David D
June 6th, 2007 3:51 PM
Who would have thought that chivalry would still be alive at the liberal Associated Press? Yet in its story on the split between Larry and Laurie David, the venerable wire agency states the age, 59, of the creator of Seinfeld, but not that of his activist wife, producer of Al Gore's "Inconvenient Truth."Isn't the feminist AP the home of strong women, proud of every wrinkle? For the record,…

June 6th, 2007 3:37 PM
As people who are following the G-8 summit in Germany are well aware, it is highly doubtful that any meaningful accord will be reached at this meeting concerning CO2 emissions. In fact, reports out of Europe and Asia for many weeks leading up to this event have made this eventuality quite clear.Yet, this didn’t prevent the Los Angeles Times’ Ron Brownstein for blaming the lack of such an…

NBC Networks to Air 75 Hours of Gore 'Climate in Crisis' Concerts
June 5th, 2007 3:03 PM
In what will surely be one of the largest ever, if not the largest, in-kind contributions to a presidential campaign if Al Gore decides to run, NBC Universal announced late last week that its networks will devote an incredible 75 hours of time on Saturday, July 7 to showing Gore's “Live Earth: The Concerts for a Climate in Crisis.” In addition to the entirety of NBC's prime time that night…

Well, not according to Seth Borenstein of the Associated Press.In an article published Saturday entitled “Blame Coal: Texas Leads Carbon Emissions” (h/t NBer dscott), the AP writer, whilst trying to point fingers at certain states for being bigger polluters than others, accidentally suggested that global warming might actually be a good thing.Don’t believe me…
Meteorologist: ‘Al Gore’s Global Warming is the Biggest Myth of th
June 4th, 2007 11:45 AM
I’m sure I’m speaking for millions of anthropogenic global warming skeptics when I say that virtually nothing brightens my day more than an article written by a climate expert exposing the Global Warmingist-in-Chief, soon-to-be-Dr. Al Gore, as nothing more than a snake oil selling charlatan.All those who agree say "Aye."With that in mind, the sun came out brightly this morning when I received the…

June 4th, 2007 10:57 AM
Most climate change watchers are aware that leaders from the eight most developed nations will be meeting in Germany this week to discuss, among other things, issues related to global warming.With a delicious sense of irony, former German Chancellor Helmut Schmidt put his two cents into this debate with comments that will surely not be reported by America’s alarmist media even though he was…

June 3rd, 2007 2:58 PM
In April, NewsBusters commended HBO for actually having a balanced panel on “Real Time”: “Maher ought to try this format of having two liberals (including himself) and two conservatives more often, for a much more balanced discussion ensued than normal, making for one of the most interesting 'Real Times' of the season so far.”For a change, Tim Russert employed the same strategy on Sunday’s “Meet…
When Will Media Report the Kyoto Carbon Con
June 2nd, 2007 3:08 PM
There’s a huge financial scam being cynically perpetrated on the people of the world that, for the most part, American media are not reporting: the Kyoto Carbon Con.What makes this silence so astounding is that the press love stories about corporations and governments bilking people out of their life savings. Take for example the media’s fascination with Enron in the early part of this decade, or…

June 1st, 2007 7:17 PM
