MSM must stand for the truth and not pander to climate change deniers as fair & balanced reporting

The latest report is dire and I encourage everyone to write their media governing boards, recall how they helped Trump for ratings? Lets not allow them to pull their bullshit about the both sides, there is nothing we can really do, other governments are worse, blah blah blah.

It is time for them to stick with the unvarnished truth about climate change. Demand honesty, demand they expose GOP connections to big oil. Fuck the Koch brothers and all their enablers. Remind them, their money will not buy them another planet to move to.


The UN has warned that we only have 12 years to curb climate change

They are all about the fight and push false equivalency to fuel it.
All about ratings.

their offices and call them out as dishonest. I wish we had done it while they held live cameras on empty podiums waiting for Trump.
