If youโre looking forย evidence of the gathering campaign to game the public conversation about climate change, check out this CNN post of Al Goreโs presentation to the Senate Foreign Relationsย Committee.
Scroll to the bottom of the story and you will see that in less than two hours from the time of posting, the story attracted more than 150 comments, nearly all of them hysterical, bitchy, vitriolic sneers or classic denier talkingย points.
In a country that just elected President Barack Obama, this is not a representative sample – and I donโt believe for a minute that this is accidental. It would be interesting if CNN could check the IP addresses (or maybe, the IP ADDRESS) on these enthusiastic media consumers. I suspect that would prove this is a fix.
