So as long as the investigation is on going, then I think it is rather wise to not start using the documents in some kind of vendetta... who knows, the whole thing might be staged by the hackers.. we simply do not know yet.
That would be easy to analyze, all they have to do is look at the headers for authenticity.

Thank God for Fox News!

Of course te lamestream media is goingto ignore Climate-Gate. They've been pushing this lie for a couple decades now, so they're not going to just up and admit they a part of the hoax.

I believe that PBS was not included in the story. We were talking about the main stream tv news networks, not public broadcasting.

Even so, when did you see it? Tonight maybe?

Please don't let the fact that I never suggested such a conspiracy exists, stop you from trying to distract away from this legitimate news story that the main stream TV networks have ignored.

I think you are the one in need of a tin foil hat, to help your reading comprehension improve.

You can bet your ass that if this same thing had happened with global warming skeptics, it would be all we'd be hearing about.

Source of the op aside, don't you find it odd that none of the major news outlets have featured stories on their websites other than fox?

Who needs mind control? A few bucks in the proper hands and you are good to go. Yes its all about money and kickstarting the "green" economy.

Re: ClimateGate Totally Ignored By TV News Outlets Except Fox

I think that those of you who have chosen to dismiss this story, need to read the article I found at RealClearPolitics, Titled:

ClimateGate: The Fix is In

After you read that, then tell me more about how this is a "nothing" story.

Re: ClimateGate Totally Ignored By TV News Outlets Except Fox

Just out of curiosity, is there any evidence in this story that indicates that anyone outside of the Hadley Climatic Research Unit have done anything to create a global warming conspiracy?

If not, then all this story is, is a case of a hacking and small group of corrupt scientists. Is that really newsworthy?
