Wall Street Journal: Still Promoting Debate

Despite having been proved, again and again, to be out of step with the science, the Wall Street Journal is still promoting a phony โ€œbalancedโ€ view on global warming – still trying to argue that there is a legitimate argument about climateย change.

In a short feature today, the WSJ juxtaposes three decades of warnings, from sources of integrity and obvious expertise (eg., the U.S. Department of Energy), with 30 years of denial, from paid apologists for industry (eg., former tobacco and energy industry shill Dr. Fredย Seitz).

The effect is to elevate the status of the deniers and to suggest that debateย endures.

It’s a sham that should be embarrassing to any journalist ofย conscience.
