On Saturday morning, CBS and NBC both ran predictable reports arguing that human activity is causing global warming, which is causing hurricanes like Florence to be worse, while those who are skeptical are derided as “climate change deniers.”
By contrast, global warming skeptic Joe Bastardi appeared on both Friday’s Fox News at Night and Thursday’s Hannity show on FNC.
He argued that, while it is true that climate has always undergone change, past hurricane seasons have actually been worse than those in recent decades, as he doubted that humans are making a significant impact on the climate.
CBS This Morning Saturday spent more than seven and half minutes on the subject as correspondent John Blackstone ran a full report on the Global Climate Summit, which was then followed up by having meteorologist Jeff Berardelli appear as a guest in studio to make predictions about how he believes hurricane seasons will get worse in the future.
As the segment came to a close, co-anchor Michelle Miller asked, “Can anyone deny climate change any longer?”
Berardelli responded:
I don’t think it’s possible to do it. There are some people that will do it — there are about eight percent of the population that you’ll never convert. But the truth is, it’s here, it’s now, it’s serious, and we have to take action if we want to save our future.
Over on Saturday’s Today, NBC correspondent Harry Smith filed a full report about the dire predictions for hurricanes in the future.
No one thought it was odd to predict harsher hurricanes in the future when Florence made landfall as a category 1 storm, which wasn’t great evidence of the doomsayer scenario.
Near the end of the report, as he spoke with environmental planner Rob Freudenberg, the NBC reporter posed: “So what would you say about all this to climate change deniers?”
Freudenberg responded:
There are people who don’t believe that climate change is happening or that humans aren’t the cause of climate change, but the fact is, changes are happening, and everybody recognizes that. And we’re going to have to deal with more flooding and bigger storms regardless of whether you believe in climate change or not.
We dont realy get any real news today all we get is libera leftists propeganda and since Trump in in the white house it wil continue
Claiming that hurricanes are getting stronger follows the established pattern of the climate left and their media pones. With no evidence at all they just declared that extreme weather events such as floods and drought had become more common. This article shows they went one step further and in the face of evidence to the contrary declared that hurricanes are getting worse.
How can anyone be a climate change realist (denier). It is simple. Look at the unaltered real world data.
The MSM have come out of the closet and we can thank Donald Trump for ignited their fury as well as revealing a glowing display of unabashed activist media bias .
Both sides do it and it will be the death of some . No one wants to listen to someone blasting them with a mega phone day after day even if you might agree with some of what they are ranting about .
The USA has millions of brilliant creative people but as a result of the uncivil political war and media carpet bombing every day the USA is facing a huge undertow .
The USA still has one of the best can do spirits in the world despite the billionaire peeing contest pulling the country apart . The rest of the world is watching a B grade soap opera .
It is obvious each branch of government has gotten comfortable with leaderless management and the inmates running the show .Unfortunately the current ruffling of feathers is temporary .
I spent too much time watching the Weather Channel last week. Coverage of Florence started several days before landfall. Hype, hype, hype. When the wind speed dropped from 130 to 120 and below, we were told that it could pick up again over warmer coastal waters. When the storm continued to weaken, the meteorologists’ disappointment was palpable. “Maybe picked up some dry air?” They sure didn’t sound or look like experts.
If this was climate change in action, why does the MSM double down on their Chicken Little script? Storm of a lifetime, indeed.
NBC and CBS The lying Peacock and The Lying Eye you can not trust these lie a day news scum suckers and John Kerry the fool who said Air Condioners were more dangerous then the Terrorists what a babbling jerk
