3 Surprising No One: Liberal Media Completely Embargoes Phil Jones Admissions

And that's pretty much the biggest news yet with regard to global warming.

4 "[H]e has not seen any, quote, 'statistically significant warming since 1995,' though he says he still believes that the earth's temperature has warmed"

Climate science in a nutshell.

5 Come on now... We still need to do something to make the rain stop, or start... or warm.. or cold.. either way PAY YOUR DUES! The Government regulations will fix it.

6 And that's pretty much the biggest news yet with regard to global warming. That and the fact that we're entering Dalton Minimum II: Little Ice Age Boogaloo.

7 Paging Al Gore... Paging Al Gore

The interviewee is a professor at Alabama Huntsville.

He's fortunate to be walking on this side of the grass.

I haven't seen a Huntsville interview since Von Braun.

A little mass murder once in awhile really keeps your campus on the map.

9 Phil Jones has a temperature!

10

But I think they have found a suitable walk-back spin that you can expect to see trial-ballooned soon:  climate scientists we fooled by mother nature and old, unreliable data.  Watch for it.

The lack of an "escape clause" for the MSM and the Democrats (birm) has prevented the exposure of these stories, but I predict they will start coming pretty quick once the "nuances" of the "fooled by Mother Nature" narrative are fine-tuned.

I told my children I would pay for their higher education in any field they chose - except journalism.  And I told them if they go that way, they could pick a new Dad too, because I would never speak to them again.

11 Time to bring in Captain America: http://tinyurl.com/yj5yzaf

12 These fucking bastards in the MSM, Phil Jones, Mann, and every pol who wants to tax us to death. They should be taken out and shot.

13 Doesn't really raise my respect of the BBC.  Just further lowers my... well, I don't have any respect for them really... opinion of the LSM.  Pretty much any news I get from them has to be verified by at least 2 other credible sources before I assume it's accurate.

14

Boy, the old home state of Alabama sure is getting a lot of press of late.

For all the wrong reasons, naturally, but still...

15 Any update on Trump wanting Al Gores Peace Prize revoked?

16 How, exactly, does this help my chubby daughters?

17 he has not seen any, quote, "statistically significant warming since 1995," though he says he still believes that the earth's temperature has warmed. And he also said that he might be missing some of the data that is responsible for his climate models.

Of course, skeptics are jumping all over this, saying the whole thing is a farce. Global warming doesn't exist.

I think the issue is that Global Warming has to be extraordinary. If the warming we had from the 80s to the 90s was no different then past warming trends, then Global Warming did occur, but AGW is a bunch of hooey.

Overall, it is looking more and more like the AGW boosters knowingly spent the last 5 or 10 years trying to hide the decline....so to speak.

Compare to the American Media, which is principally now in the business of blocking the reportage of news blowing Obama on a daily basis.

I don't think they deserve to be called "media".

But "lying, truth-burying assholes" is a bit of a mouthful.

What is Jones trying to do? Hurt Charlie Johnson? He has invested the full thimblefull of his credibility in Global Warming. How unfair. Now Charlie will have to put his widdle hands over his ears while hollering Nanananana, lest he realize he has been a massive, galactic dickhead.

We TOTALLY agree.......

22 Look, I think you are all being much to hard on Phil Jones.  Being a climate scientist is hard work, it's not like you can just wish the data into proving the warming we know exists.  I hope you will all think about that before causing the good man any more trouble.

23 Any update on Trump wanting Al Gores Peace Prize revoked?

I'm more than happy to point this out to the world.

Oh, I was going to get a few more mirrors for the white house. Oh, and maybe some large screen digital picture frames. Who wants to see a bunch of dead white guys when you could be looking at me?

31

I believe that the American Meida is wholeheartedly correct in not covering the corporatist and big oil funded denialist lies and slander. The British Media, however, should be banned from the internet and airwaves for being a mouthpiece of Christianist Creationists and Willful Gaia Molesters.

 

Anybody want a kindle? 

32 Well, I think what Phil Jones is saying is that Mother Nature is perfectly capable of making the temperature rise and fall through the past several hundred years.

You mean like all of us stupid bagging mouthbreathers said?  No!  The hell you say!

You know, when I lose evidence in a case, the other side is entitled to a jury instruction that says the jury is completely free to presume that lost evidence would be against my position.  I think it's fair to assume the same here.

33 oh, and it appears as though Hurricane Data may be a bit dodgy as well.

34 Chuck is mighty high on Science. Too damn bad he can't recognize it when it's biting him on his fat ass.

35 We're going to live!

36

"Look, I think you are all being much to hard on Phil Jones."

I totally agree.  Push him too far and he may go Full Bishop on some collegues.

37

Overall, it is looking more and more like the AGW boosters knowingly spent the last 5 or 10 years trying to hide the decline....so to speak.

Longer than that. I remember watching a show from the 1990s about how temperatures were being measured in cities that had built up, etc.

38 35: he said he read a book or something and "bothered to educate himself". Yeah. He probably read a comic book and took that as Gospel for his new faith

39

I totally agree.  Push him too far and he may go Full Bishop on some collegues.

Like the earthquakes and tsunamis, that too would be taken as more proof of Global Warming.

40

oh, and it appears as though Hurricane Data may be a bit dodgy as well.

Perhaps it would be easier to point out which, if any, portions are correct.

41 I don't care anymore. Screw all of you. You'll have to pry my cold, dead ass out of this chair. 

42 I can haz ManBerPeeg?

43 In Britain, both Labour and Conservative politicians swallowed AGW pretty much whole hog and each party tried to one-up the other as being greener than thou.  So the British media in the end wasn't really favoring one party over the other by exposing the charade.  But in the US, the popular media-driven perception is of enlightened Democrat progressives versus foot-dragging Republican Gaia-rapers, so any walkback on AGW is seen to hurt the Dems much more than the Reps.

44 You teabaggers are sooo unsophisticated. Your little facts can't affect the TRUTH! AGW is REAL, and is caused by racist clouds!

Scandinavia-gate

"Yet again,  we have a situation where the data doesnÂ’t match the full-gloss coloured graphs produced by the PR agency for global warming called the IPCC."

46 I have actually toyed with the idea of getting a subscription to the Guardian at some point. Not because I am simpatico with their 'tendencies' but because they do COVER THE NEWS. As you say, even when the news is not to their liking they tend to cover it nonetheless. And when they do cover it, they most often just present the facts without a wheelbarrow of spin. That deserves respect and support. Frankly if somehow the Guardian could replace the NYT everyone(except Times propaganists) would be the better for it.

47 41: true. That would leave a blank sheet of paper then

48 Ace, you are spot on. Keep up the pressure. The left created this monstrosity. The left will fall with it as well, the fucking traitorous fucking liars!! 

49 Well, if I read that the writers of this crap were sweating more than usual, I'd believe that.

50 Do players like the NYT, the WaPo, the LAT, and the Boston Globe understand that virtually no one under thirty pays them the slightest attention? Do they get it, yet, that if we see a headline on the Grey Lady, our first instinct is to peel back the lede and search for the real story elsewhere?

I told my children I would pay for their higher education in any field they chose - except journalism.

That's harsh, sherlock.

Ideally, journalism as a field of study provides a great education requiring genuine knowledge across a broad array of subjects. The reality is that the journalists themselves are lazy. The people who practice this craft are oftentimes the ones who cut corners on the curriculum as students and rely on press releases to have their job done for them as "professionals." The model jourmalist is sharp, curious, a quick study on everything, analytical, clear of thought, unintimidated by all levels of power and beyond reproach in terms of integrity. It would be fine if some journalists merely lacked some of these qualities. Sadly, too many have the exact opposite of all of them.

I'd like to talk you out of your deal with your children regarding the study of journalism. Failing that, I'd like to convince you to extend your exception to also include education.

53 Goddammit,how is it that the English press makes the MSM look like pussies. These LSM outfits better understand that they are going the be the first to be hanging from lightpoles.

54

"I'd like to convince you to extend your exception to also include education."

I'd like to nominate Continuing Education/Studies

55 Al Gore surfaces!  Worse than we thought.

56

Still waiting for an apology from Kathleen Parker for calling all climate realists "the same" as holocaust deniers.

I talked to my mom (liberal) about this yeasterday. She said I just get my info from the intertubes because she has not seen it on ABC News.

Unless and until the LSM reports this it is not true to a huge anount of people in this country. Sad but true. Alternative media is great but limited.

57 As I asked yesterday, does anyone want to bet against me that, sometime in March, we'll be reading somewhere that this February was actually the warmest February on record? Personally, I think that too many people have gone too far down this road to even think of turning back, and if they have to torture the data into confessing to a lie, they'll do it without a thought. Certainly, "Chuckles" won't give up on this crap until the next ice age, and even then he'll blame it on global warming.

58 Even the public has given up on the MSM News now. As I said in the previous thread, they have spent their wad.

59 Oh God.. Al Gore is still fuckin' that chicken

60 MiniTrue: Comrades, you only need to know what we tell you.

61 This doesnÂ’t quite fall into the weather as climate Â… Following a cold snap in the Northeast, Lake ErieÂ’s surface is virtually frozen over for the first time in about 14 years. The ice ranges in thickness between paper thin along the northern shore and several inches along the southern shore, where many people are ice skating. GoErie.com reports that the lake hasnÂ’t completely frozen since the winter of 1995-1996. Although the ice cover is considered complete, prevailing winds have created some cracks in the ice. There are also reportedly ice chunks floating off the coast of Dunkirk, N.Y., which is one of the deepest parts of the lake and would naturally be one of the last places to freeze.

62 The American media is committing malpractice in its conduct of journalism. There needs to be a certification process....licensing, if you will, before allowing anyone to practice journalism. And the primary criterion should be to keep your fucking opinion to yourself. If you cannot do that then find another line of work. Like PR hack for the Democratic Party. Which is what our current media, with the exception of Fox, the WSJ and a handful of others, is.

63 True, the Legacy Media hasn't touched it and probably never will.  But at least I can listen to my dip sis in law choke on it when I say the data sucks....and when she makes a snarky comment about Fox, I can honestly say that I learned it from the sainted Auntie Beeb instead. 

64

Ace, I ban you from the Internet for your denialism of Global Warming and for the racism inherent in your denialism of Global Warming. And I mean from the entire Internet, no more Ewok porn for you. Ever.

Kilgore is out back cutting your wires as I write this. Al Gore, the inventor of the Internet and the architect of the Carbon Exchange that will save the non-racist environmentally sound world from your ilk told me I could.  

65 Why didn't you come to me like a fucking man, and tell me to stop fucking with the data?

66 And by the way. y'all, HAPPY MARDI GRAS!!!!!!!!!!

67 I'll bet the LAT will be the first big liberal press to break the embargo.

68

*Flash*

Olberchild still spewing stoopid, pointless shit.

69 Also in the controversy from the emails going under-reported? Jones et al. conspiracy to exclude critics, aka scientists, venue and voice. The bad science is just a tip of the iceberg. Their collusion to block out challenge and essentially make critics unemployable in the field was much worse.

These IPCC/AGW Hysterics/East Anglia academics are frauds. That is all they are. They cannot and should not be rehabilitated. Going back to them to get their adjusted opinion based on new evidence or soul-searching, career-saving walkbacks? An endeavor they do not deserve and one that should not be trusted anyway.

Strike "scientist" from their titles. They are not. They really should be facing academic isolation and banishment if not actual confinement/prison for fraud.

Mama AJ,

Yeah, I remember watching a newscast a long ways back - could have been in the 80's - about how New York City could have a climate comparable to that of Miami by the turn of the century or thereabouts.

Saw Perky Katie the other night do a little shtick on this with some goofy music, talking about how there were some issues with the data that were giving "skeptics" some "ammunition". The whole tone seemed to be that there were a few technical glitches that were giving the flat earth society members an excuse to distort the truth that we all know.

 

72 She said I just get my info from the intertubes because she has not seen it on ABC News.

Buy her a subscription to the British press.  Surely she will trust the Red Guardian.

73 Fugazi, (#57) I know all too well what you mean. I used to do some work with a pro-Israel media advocacy/watchdog group that refused to acknowledge any journalist or outlet that wasn't in good standing with the left-wing cabal. It was their feeling that only sources like the New York Times, Washington Post, NPR, CBS, NBC, ABC, and CNN had any standing among their target audience. So if Fox News (or any outfit with a perceived conservative/right slant) reported a story that treated Israel in a positive light, we couldn't use it, period. And since my group's hallowed liberal/left biased sources were adept at simply ignoring stories that didn't fit a pro-Palestinian agenda, we were hard pressed to find anything to counter the daily lies and propaganda that were being aimed at Israel from Hamas and Hezbollah.

For all the talk of how talk radio and the internet have leveled the playing field, the truth is...not so much. The same dynamic shows up in trying to get people to look at the other side of the global warming debate. The second you say your information comes from Fox, The Wall Street Journal, or National Review Online, the majority of people tend to dismiss it out of hand, no matter how well sourced or researched that information might be. So as long as the NYT and company choose to keep burying inconvenient truthiness, I'm afraid the current leadership in Washington will keep cramming this stuff down our collective throats. Wish I knew how to change the dynamic, but I don't.

And they were right.  It snowed in NYC and it snowed in Florida.

75

At East Anglia, the dog ate their homework.

Remember that the BBC has 12 billion$ of their pension funds in the Gorebull Worming industry. Gangrene job development, Carbon credit exchange industry, Gangrene energy industry, and of course the Worming propaganda industry. They are going to change their spin very soon.

76

Looks like Gore might me right.  Oh wait.

Associated Press story published in the Washington Post, November 2, 1922.  Arctic Ocean Getting Warm; Seals Vanish and Icebergs Melt.

The Arctic ocean is warming up, icebergs are growing scarcer and in some places the seals are finding the water too hot, according to a report to the Commerce Department yesterday from Consul Ifft, at Bergen, Norway.

Reports from fishermen, seal hunters and explorers, he declared, all point to a radical change in climate conditions and hitherto unheard-of temperatures in the Arctic zone. Exploration expeditions report that scarcely any ice has been met with as far north as 81 degrees 29 minutes. Soundings to a depth of 3,100 meters showed the gulf stream still very warm.

Great masses of ice have been replaced by moraines of earth and stones, the report continued, while at many points well known glaciers have entirely disappeared. Very few seals and no white fish are found in the eastern Arctic, while vast shoals of herring and smelts, which have never before ventured so far north, are being encountered in the old seal fishing grounds

I meant it just the same way I once upon a time warned them not to get into cars with strangers, and for pretty much the same sordid reasons.  Except now that they are infinitely wise, I have to threaten them.  It's working so far - both becoming Doctors.

Oh, wait....

78 The American media has been so silent about this, there can be only one explanation. JOHN EDWARDS FUCKED GLOBAL WARMING!

79 Do the American MSM not realize that they are no longer people's only source of news?

Are they not aware that people can learn this news from elsewhere, then wonder why they did not hear it from the trusty MSM?

It's almost as if they've given up on reporting news, and now see themselves as groupthinking massage outlets, providing only what will soothe and relax the partisans who tune in.

It's not "news" until the media elite say it's "news".  And right now you have a lot of media elites with EGO involved.  So they'll continue to screech that the sky is falling.

84 "We have a childish, petulant, insecure, unprofessional media. It has to be noted again that the British media is covering this story well -- even left-wing outfits like the Guardian and the statist-establishment-left BBC."
