Global Warming

All this week, NewsBusters is recounting the most obnoxious liberal bias of the year. Today, we look at the silliest analysis of 2020.  

On Wednesday's CBS This Morning, correspondent Mark Phillips devoted a full report to fretting that all the e-mailing and computer usage, as well as other ways people consume energy at home, is actually counterracting the environmental "silver lining" that liberals have tried to take comfort in during the pandemic as fewer people drive to work.

Axios must like propping up Democratic senators as crusaders against fossil fuel special interests while ignoring their own deep ties to special interests, including dark money.

On Friday's Amanpour & Co. on PBS and CNN International, the show devoted its first 21 minutes to global warming, speaking with former Secretary of State John Kerry in the first segment and liberal teen activist Greta Thunberg in the second, giving them little challenge to promote their views.

As global warming activist and former Democratic Vice President Al Gore appeared as guest on Sunday''s State of the Union, CNN host Jake Tapper declared that President-elect Joe Biden's leadership is needed in fighting climate change, and cued up his liberal guest to call for action on the issue from Biden in his first 100 days.

On Sunday's Velshi show, MSNBC host and NBC News senior business correspondent Ali Velshi hyped fears about global warming as he linked recent examples of extreme weather and natural disasters to human activity, and promoted UN secretary general Antonio Guterres's recent hyperbolic claim that humanity is "waging war on nature."

On Wednesday’s NBC Nightly News, correspondent Geoff Bennett offered his latest entry in a portfolio that’s increasingly geared toward sucking up to the incoming Biden administration. In an NBC News Exclusive with former Secretary of State John Kerry, Bennett lauded his new job as President-Elect Joe Biden’s climate envoy and wondered what Americans must “sacrifice” in order to heal…

On CNN's New Day Sunday, fill-in host Martin Savidge devoted a segment to fearmongering over an alleged "climate crisis" and expressed his hopes that a Joe Biden administration will to action to prevent disaster. The New Yorker contributor and environmental alarmist Bill McKibben hyperbolically likened global warming to the threat of fascism during World War II.

CBS This Morning partnered with a far-left propaganda outfit to push climate activism and a return to United Nations efforts to attack the oil and gas industry. Co-host Tony Dokoupil fully adopted the agenda as he compared the world to a suicidal person about to jump off a ledge. While interviewed United Nations Secretary General Antonio Guterres, he parroted alarmist talking points…

Journalists despise government efforts to "investigate media power" -- unless it's Rupert Murdoch. On Friday's Amanpour & Co. on PBS and CNN International, host Christiane Amanpour provided an unchallenged forum to former Australian prime minister Kevin Rudd to complain about Rupert Murdoch's influence on issues like global warming, and to talk up an effort he is pushing to…

On Friday's New Day show on CNN, political analyst John Avlon tried to provide comfort food for liberal audience members as he devoted his "Reality Check" segment to portraying liberal policies as being popular in spite of the close election results.

I hear that climate change will destroy much of the world. "There will be irreversible damage to the planet!" warns a CNN anchor. Joe Biden says he'll spend $500 billion a year to fight what his website calls an "existential threat to life." Really? I'm a consumer reporter. Over the years, alarmed scientists have passionately warned me about many things that they thought were about to kill…

Exploiting the coronavirus to promote climate lockdowns apparently wasn’t enough for the leftist media. Now, one publication is looking to use it to push for radical population control. New Scientist (NS) recently published an eco-extremist piece arguing for reductions in the world population.

On her 2:00 p.m. ET hour show on Thursday, MSNBC anchor and left-wing climate change activist Katy Tur was salivating over the incoming Biden administration’s plans to implement economy-killing climate regulations by executive fiat. She lead off the segment by hailing: “Four years of climate change denial will come to an end on January 20th when President-Elect Joe Biden takes office.”
