Breaking News! The Earth Is Warming! No Wait, It’s Cooling! No Wait...

by Art Horn & Michael J. Economides - October 20th, 2010 - Tory Media

Warnings of global warming have been with us now for two decades, courtesy of the news media. And surely these respected and long-lived newspapers, magazines and television networks can be trusted to tell us what the current state of the climate is and what it will do?

A least one would think so.

Or more likely not. The article is a masterful recapping of the more than one century of proof that the press is ALWAYS wrong about its climate predictions. In cycle after cycle of the planet cooling and heating the press is nearly a generation late talking about what is happening and usually has only gotten on the doomsday prediction bandwagon after the weather has already changed direction.

That is what they miss. It is weather. Predicting the weather is usually wrong except for really short term predictions.

It is also interesting that the political movement that has always led this chicken little prediction effort is composed of left wing extremist groups. Whether they call themselves progressives or socialists or fascists or communists, using the chicken little process to gain political power is always a left wing strategy. Since the press is also traditionally composed of left wing extremists, it is predictably one of the foremost proponents of these fear mongering tactics. It is only when you track their constant change of directions as the weather changes over time that you realize how ignorant their climate change predictions look.

If you think global warming is real, you are a gullible fool. If you proclaim global warming is real, you are a left wing con artist.
