I used to watch CNN and MSNBC and they are pretty biased. I can't name any non-liberal anchor on those channels. Well I can name 2 on CNN, but they both got the boot Glenn Beck and my favorite, Lou Dobbs. FOx definitaly has much more diversity of opinion than the other 2 channels. They regularly invite on liberal commentators, and have liberalish anchors like Shep Smith and Geraldo Rivera. They also have 2 libertarian anchors John Stossel and Judge Napolitano. All MSNBC and CNN have are liberals, liberals, liberals.

Well of course they haven't been, what they do have is records of temperatures from many stations world wide which is where one of the issues start. They don't use the raw data to present these reports but instead use adjusted data. This itself is not an issue, for example if you have a reading in Alaska that says it's 100 degrees in the middle of January that would be a mistake and you'll want to throw it out.

What has been found is many of these adjustments have a warming bias. Here's a prime example:

The Smoking Gun At Darwin Zero | Watts Up With That?



The blue line is the raw temperature readings. the red line is what they adjusted it too. Around 1940 there is obvious issue with the raw data because the entire trend shifts downward. While an adjustment to bring the trend into line is justified what is not justified is increasing it every year past where the issues occurs. Abra cadabra presto chango... a temperature station that incorrectly shows global cooling now shows global warming.

According to the email, obtained by Media Matters, Fox News's Washington bureau chief, Bill Sammon, imposed an order to make time for climate skeptics within 15 minutes of the airing of a story about a scientific report showing that 2000-2009 was on track to be the hottest decade on record.

Fox News chief enforced climate change scepticism
Climate always changes, I think you meant to say they are exposing "man made climate change"0\ is a fraud.
