Liberal media hype on global warming exposed

I don't often have nice things to say about our neighbors to the north, but today is the exception.

I came across an article in a Canadian newspaper that examines the biased reporting on global warming in the liberal U.S. media.

"The media snowjob on global warming"
takes a look at the mainstream media's biased coverage of the Nongovernmental International Panel on Climate Change (NIPCC).

This is a group of scientists that isn't drinking the Kool Aid served up by Al Gore and other alarmists.

The NIPCC is a counter to the U.N.'s Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, or IPCC, according to Lorne Gunter, a columnist for the National Post.

From Gunter's story:
Hundreds of scientists may have contributed bits and pieces of work to the IPCC's gargantuan report, but just 62 wrote the chapter said to "prove" that man is behind global warming -- not that many more than the 23 from the new NIPCC who the Post so snidely dismiss as inconsequential in number. And just 52 people -- many of them the kind of non-scientists the Post would have us believe have no business passing judgment -- wrote the IPCC's "Summary for Policy-makers." That's the publication that gets all the ink and drives the climate alarmism because it contains the most provocative statements about the certainty of manmade warming.

I've been watching the Glenn beck show whenever i can, and last we this was one of his topics. It appears there was a convention in NY that basically disputed all that Mr. Gore dreamed up. Glenn mad mention that only 1 news reporter was there to cover the convention. Why was this swept under the carpet, and why isn't Gore being held accountable for all his false accusations ?
