Yesterday I reported on how science editor Axel Bojanowski at German national daily DIE WELT had written a commentary on the deceptive use of a faulty climate hockey stick by ZDF German broadcasting.

CORRECTION: The ARD has not changed its color scheme. The chart for 2009 shows the 3-day forecast, which according to ARD in fact has not changed. The 2019 is the forecast chart for the day, and this 1-day chart uses a different color code for temperature. It too has not changed since 2009. The third […]

Central Europe has been getting WETTER over the long term, and not drier like much media like to suggest. Dry years are nothing new. Lately in Central Europe we’ve been hearing a lot about drought becoming the new normal – all because of man-made global warming, of course. Lots of hype made from 2 years […]

I feel obligated to upgrade a reader comment by Jim Lakely, Communications Director, The Heartland Institute, to a post. He says I was “being very unfair” yesterday. My main gripe is that these two very dishonest Correctiv “journalists” should have never been allowed to get as far as they did. Now we independent skeptics here […]

Grand media deception So typical of climate science. Everything in and around it gets wildly exaggerated in order to feed media consumption and deceive the public. Reports are emerging that the “500,000 people” crowd awaiting Greta in Madrid was in fact as low as 15,000, according to Spanish federal police. That would make the 500,000 claimed […]
