Something that irritates me is False Balance in the media on AGW and climate change:
False balance, also referred to as false equivalence, is a real or perceived media bias, where journalists present an issue as being more balanced between opposing viewpoints than the evidence actually supports. Journalists may present evidence and arguments out of proportion to the actual evidence for each side, or may censor information which would establish one side’s claims as baseless.
So, with numerous studies showing 97% of those actively studying the climate expressing their personal opinion, AND, 97%+ of the papers publishedconfirming AGW, why do we get a false balance on TV, and other media outlets ?
You get the idea.
