I have known about American media for a long time. FOX can't even get a license to broadcast in Canada because of their admitted rewriting of news stories (e.g., lying) to suit their agenda. I go to the BBC, Reuters, and Al Jazeera for news of what is happening in the United States. Even Jon Stewart is better balanced and more informative than the network crap.
BTW - this is not a problem that concerns "me". This is a problem that concerns all of us, or should. The coastlines of the world are going to change dramatically, and some island countries may become completely submerged and uninhabitable. People can only stick their heads in the sand for so long.
If the breakout is not 97% - 3%, please correct the information.
I would rethink Reuters if I were you since they were caught red handed doctoring photos. Reuters is part of the problem.
Take a look at the groups involved in this "march". If the media didn't give it the attention that some think it should have ..... it's probably because they were too embarrassed to do so.
I'd be embarrassed to post that Byron York op-ed.
He screams at people screaming about screaming.
And much like his laundry list of movements he's after, one could easily point to fractured talking points throughout. I'd be p'ed too if I worked at the Washington Examiner.
I don't have a clue. I'm still trying ti figure out why there are days in Houston when I cannot go into my own backyard. I'm still trying to figure out how a company's need to produce a product and the public need for that product trumps my right to breathe.
IMO, that line in "Hair" says it all. "Do whatever you want. Be whatever you want to be, just don't hurt anybody"
Even the former president of Shell Oil USA thinks we use too much crude oil.
What if you and your bunch are wrong and gw is true?
Nonsense... just do what we did here in Cali 40 years ago a pass a clean air act. My family joined in those picketing the polluters for years and we finally won!
Breathing (air quality) here in Los Angeles is far better than it was at any time in the 20th century. We never have bad air days anywhere near those back in the sixties and seventies.
People stretched for four miles down Central Park West, and only small articles appeared in any of the so-called "liberal media". Most of those were fluff pieces showing the party at ground level, but skirting the issue that brought 400,000 people together in New York for the rally. There are six corporations that own the media in this country, and they all answer to Wall Street.
97% of the scientists who have studied Climate Change say that Global Warming is a very real phenomenon. There will be a cost associated with curtailing the causes if it is ever admitted to be fact, and Wall Street doesn't want to talk about it. This is a perfect example of how the media and government are being controlled by Big Money. Global Warming is real, and the media is ignoring it. ALL of the media. They're all in it together.

My son is not an idiot. He, and a busload of students and professors from his Vermont college marched.
I am so proud of him.
Anyone who does not believe in climate change has their head in the sand, or has some other nefarious agenda.
Their agenda is pure ignorance.
In other news, CBS Evening News did not even mention this this evening. How can this be?
Well, for one thing, the new head of CBS News came over from FOX, so I'm guessing this had something to do with it. The media is definitely burying this story.
