According to Richard Black of the BBC, global warming is soon to be a $100 billion per year industry. This money pays for and drives the direction of the science.
The press corps(e) drones on endlessly about tiny amounts of imagined big oil money – yet refuses to discuss the scientific corruption caused by unimaginably large amounts of big government money, big bank money, big insurance money, …. etc.
The message for scientists is simple. Give us the answer we are looking for, and we will pay you. Give us the wrong answer and we will fire you. Journalists won’t touch this because they are on same payola scheme.
Same reason the antique media won’t touch the Eligibility issue, Barry’s credentials, Barry’s friends and associates, the Frank Marshall Davis connection, etc., etc.
In an industry as incestuous as big-bucks media, banishment/shunning is a most powerful collective leash
Big Govt $ support for AGW reaches trillions of $ across of the globe: an all but insurmoutable onslaught of resources applied in support of the scam.
And Big Business money is most insidious, like Google & B of A. It a travesty, a ridiculousness, that they talk about large amount of $ from big oil going to skeptics, when that’s untrue as at most a pittance have gone to skeptics, and a true acounting shows that for the most part even big oil is in the tank for the climate change loons.
And the govt money that isn’t taxed from honest people is borrowed, or just printed. The federal government steals from current citizens and citizens yet to be born to support this asininity.
Steven, do you have a link to this, please? I can’t find anything on the BBC website…
Thanks
BBC News – Rio: Money flows and commitment woes
Give bureaucrats a little power – this is just too funny.
An EU bureaucrat is threatening US, China, Russia, etc., airline carriers to get with the climate change program or Europe will have a trade war with you. And exactly who will that hurt?

Insanity compounded daily….Most of Europe is already in an Eco-induced financial comma…time to just ignore them ’til they die completely. Absolutely hope Boeing snatches those China orders. Trade war? Yeah, that’s what the EU needs. This could become the event the ends the EU, sooner than later.
It’s a dream come true for journalism. Promoting scary stories sells news plus you get to do it with implied moral goodness. It’s a win-win situation for them.
Do not forget that the news media has been owned by J. P. Morgan since 1917. (Tax payers have been bankster serfs ever since.)
Data to back that up is in this first comment.
