The 9 errors in Al Gore's film

[Onlooker]

Perhaps this has been posted, but it's an interesting article that explains what the British Court really ruled. Ironically, it seems like the righties here are now advocates of the Fairness Doctrine!

1. Thank you.

This has been posted, but the scientific blog you linked to explained things in very clear terms. This film is for laymen. Scientists may argue over the fine points, but the film is broadly accurate.

I wonder sometimes if our current journalists have any reading comprehension skills.

2. Thank you!

That's a very clear representation and just proves what inaccurate, slanted "reporting" the MSM has been doing.

3. And realclimate now has a post up on it...

Destroying the RW talking points further.

But it's not that the RW is wrong, it's that they manage to get
people to believe them or disbelieve their opponents for the 20 minutes
it takes for them to change the subject to the next batch of lies.
So it's good to see their bull debunked, but on to the next smear...

If Al Gore had a nickel for every word that had been placed in
his mouth by squawk radio...
