denying global warming is an equivalent to saying the sky is falling
i remember gwbushwackadoodle only denying that industry was partially responsible
(of course he also said the jury is still out on evolution)
the sun will get bigger and the earth's spin will slow down and become hell hot and ice cold
curbing emisions now is pratically shutting the barn door after the horse has run away
had something been done in the 70's maybe things would be better now, but that ship has sailed
what concerns me now is what on earth is going to happen on 12/20/2012, what so many believe is doomsday eve
we may be in the middle of a self-fulfilling prophesy
peace on earth

HAHfuck 'em if they can't take a joke

First of all its not called Global Warming anymore, because calling that scam by that name was not working out so well, they're now selling the scam under the term "climate change". Either way its a way for the government and people like Al Gore make more money.I have certain rules I live by ... My First Rule ... I don't believe anything the government tells me ... George Carlin

IF 98% of climate scientists KNOW that climate change is real and, at least partially, caused by man
AND Almost half the population believe climate change is not real,
THEN, Fox News and other retarded organizations are to blame for the general population's stupidity.Everything not forbidden is compulsory and eveything not compulsory is forbidden. You are free... free to do what the government says you can do.0 -
So..
What I got out of that article are things are happening slower than predicted.
Well, I'm glad Fox news is trying to calm everyone down. They sure like to play chicken little when it comes to terrorists and war and everything else that the neurotic conservative base clutches their guns inside of their bomb shelters for..
I'm pretty liberal, but am not concerned about global warming. It's going to happen and unless we stop breeding, there's very little we can do about it. Everyone gets into heated debates about it, and I think to myself, stop having fucking children and in a few years all this will be fixed... There are over 6 billion people sucking resources from a planet that was designed to support hundreds of thousands of us at most. Do the math.Post edited by LikeAnOcean on0 -
this is something you can't afford to be wrong about.
either we clean up this planet...and we're wrong and we have a cleaner planet......
or we don't....and we're wrong and we all die.
yeah fuckit tho, its only the human race. there isn't anything in nature that even compares to the dismal, selfish, twisted species that is the human race.0 -

At best, Fox News only has about 1% of the US Population as viewers on any given day, so arguments like that really don't make a lot of sense. CNN actually had more overall viewers in 2010 than any other cable news network, or were you lumping them in as a retarded organization?0 -

and a way to keep everyone bickering instead of DOING anything about it. is the planet warming? cooling? going through natural cycles? we can debate this forever but what CAN'T be debated is our negative impact on the planet, which is why they don't focus on the effects of pollution, deforestation.... but rather if the planet is warming up or not.don't compete; coexist

Extended exposure to Fox News makes voters stupid, university study finds
The troublesome record of spin by conservative television station Fox News has long been a cause for concern to many Americans, who frequently allege that the nation's most viewed "news" network has the effect of dumbing down voters.
Turns out, they were right.
A University of Maryland study (PDF) published earlier this month found that people in the survey who had the most exposure to Fox News were more likely to believe falsehoods and rumors about national and world affairs when compared to those who paid attention to other news outlets.
In a summary carried by Alternet, the following falsehoods were most relayed by Fox News viewers:
91 percent believed the stimulus legislation lost jobs;
72 percent believed the health reform law will increase the deficit;
72 percent believed the economy is getting worse;
60 percent believed climate change is not occurring;
49 percent believed income taxes have gone up;
63 percent believed the stimulus legislation did not include any tax cuts;
56 percent believed Obama initiated the GM/Chrysler bailout;
38 percent believed that most Republicans opposed TARP;
63 percent believed Obama was not born in the U.S. (or that it is unclear).
The poll's findings seem to sync with those of an NBC News survey (PDF) taken during the height of America's health care reform debate, where Fox News viewers were found to be most likely to have believed wildly inaccurate interpretations of the legislation.
While Fox News and parent company News Corporation have long been criticized cheerleading Republican causes and conservative-allied business interests, it has been under more intense criticism of late over high profile donations to Republicans, deceptive video editing on multiple programs and even on-air GOP fundraisers.
Though the station claims to run "news" programming during the daytime, liberal watchdog group MediaMatters recently revealed a leaked email that shows one of the network's top editors ordering anchors to use terminology favored by conservatives.
In a follow-up, the media blog released a second leaked email showing the same editor, Fox News Washington, DC managing editor Bill Sammon, directing staff to cast doubt upon climate data, even when it was not in question. The revelation was hailed by former Vice President Al Gore, a champion of climate change activism, who argued it proves the spin coming from Fox News is straight from the top.
And it doesn't help that one of their most-watched opinion hosts, conspiracy theorist Glenn Beck, is prone to making up outrageous falsehoods to scare viewers.
The network has big plans to expand it's brand into the future: According to anchor Chris Wallace, the 2012 Republican presidential primary elections will be "a production of Fox News," not unlike the Fox network's American Idol.
Virtually all the leading GOP candidates are paid contributors for the network, and over 30 Fox News personalities have endorsed Republicans in the past.
The Obama administration, similarly, has called Fox News "a wing of the Republican party."don't compete; coexist

you cited a Fox News article, so that's why I said "Fox News AND OTHER retarded organizations..."
There are many media outlets that provide utter SHITE as far as relevant, accurate, and unbiased information. Fox News just happens to be at the very top of that HEAP OF SHITE.Everything not forbidden is compulsory and eveything not compulsory is forbidden.

Not to mention that they're notoriously biased when it comes to global warming.0 -
we can all make up our own minds and find what we believe to be true right ? if it's FOX CNN CBS NBC or who ever we choose to believe or we can do the home work and find as much of the facts as we can our selfs, there is no need to be close minded or one sided on here about a news station, I don't believe any of them any more, why don't some of you compare stories from station to station and see how they differ instead of sounding just like the stations you don't believe.

You're right, they're all utter shit. Fox News is blatantly the worst, though. They are more biased towards the republican party than I am towards the female anatomy. If you don't see that, then I don't think there is any hope for you.
But again, they're all utter shit. Read Chomsky's Manufacturing Consent for a good understanding of why they are. I'm too hungover to get into details, but yeah, I don't even listen to NPR anymore. But, it's not that difficult to search the internets for real information rather than meaningless rhetoric. You certainly won't get it from FOX CNN CBS NBC ETC...Everything not forbidden is compulsory and eveything not compulsory is forbidden.

The Day after next week thursday before friday movie is complete nonsense, (however True Grit was awesome!)
However...
Pollution is bad for you. that is why CEO of major corporations don't live down wind or water from the factories they run...
I hate the fact that Democrats have taken something that is a fact that everyone can agree on (Pollution is bad for you) and politicizing it, giving it a polarizing key word "Global Warming" and therefore make 50% of the people for it in the process. I hate Republicans that are Pro-Pollution, really, you can figure out that toxic waste is bad for Everything?
I enjoy going hunting (not in helicopters mind you) and fishing. I enjoy clean air and water and it pisses me off that some suit in a giant corporation gets to make an extra billion in profit by spewing waste everywhere.Ed: 2011-07-09 2012-11-04
