So, were these Anti Global warming authors Sean Hannity praises, paid off

[Quixote1818]

to write these idiot books? How can we find out?

These ass holes say their is NO science behind the idea that Global Warming is caused by Mankind. I tried to call in to Sean Hannity the other day and remind them that there have been 650 peer reviewed articles that disagree with their worthless books. I also wanted to ask them if their work was peer reviewed because I know it was NOT.

These fuck heads are no different than the fringe, dishonest "scientists" hired by the cigarette companies who said cigarettes were good for you.

I really hate these people! They are willing to sell out the planet just to make money! They are the lowest form of scum imaginable!

How can we see if they are being paid to write this crap?

2. Here ya go

Scientists and economists have been offered $10,000 each by a lobby group funded by one of the world's largest oil companies to undermine a major climate change report due to be published today.

Letters sent by the American Enterprise Institute (AEI), an ExxonMobil-funded thinktank with close links to the Bush administration, offered the payments for articles that emphasise the shortcomings of a report from the UN's Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC).

(snip)

The AEI has received more than $1.6m from ExxonMobil and more than 20 of its staff have worked as consultants to the Bush administration. Lee Raymond, a former head of ExxonMobil, is the vice-chairman of AEI's board of trustees.

3. Do we know if the guys on Sean Hannity who wrote those books

were on the pay roll? Thats what I would like to know.

If so, someone needs to find out a way to call into one of these right wing shows and confront them. Also, Media Matters needs to nail their ass to the wall!
