So my local weatherman talked about climate change

during the weather report. They will often talk about whether the temps are typical or higher/lower than usual. The context here was explaining that even though we've had a really cold week, the winters have been getting progressively warmer in Wisconsin for a few decades. Just a matter of fact statement.

But this is a state where the governor had any reference to climate change scrubbed from the department of natural resources website, because climate change just doesn't exist.

Does your weatherman mention climate change? How long before they start being censored by the powers that be, and not be allowed to talk about weather trends?

I don't watch local news because our "local" news is about 70 miles from where we live.
