What does it say about the fourth estate and the presidential debate moderators that it fell to MTV to break the climate silence by finally asking one of the candidates about climate change? 

Oh well, at least it’s broken now. H/T Forecast The Facts

To the 2012 Presidential Debate moderators, here’s a little tribute to all of you for failing to ask any questions about the single largest threat to U.S. national security, public health and the economy. I’m looking at you Candy “all you climate change people” Crowley, Jim Lehrer, and Bob “200 questions” Schieffer. You all just got owned by MTV, that bastion of vital political coverage.

Take a bow, Sway Calloway!
