Mann was never charged with anything and totally vindicated. It should not be forgotten that the graph showed a sharp rise in temperatures in the 20th century, a phenomen which has been totally proved beyond any shadow of doubt. The board of inquiry at Pennsylvania State University said it found no evidence that Michael Mann, a leading climatologist, had suppressed or falsified data, tried to destroy data or emails, or misused information. The panel dismissed the charge. "The so-called 'trick' was nothing more than a statistical method used to bring two or more different kinds of data sets together in a legitimate fashion by a technique that has been reviewed by a broad array of peers in the field," the panel said. https://www.theguardian.com/environment/2010/feb/03/climate-scientist-michael-mann Edited December 13, 2021 by ozimoron Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TropicalGuy Posted December 14, 2021 Share Posted December 14, 2021 Old school professional accessible impartial balanced journalism long gone.ergo no MSM or any media can be trusted to present proper facts without substantial bias and distortion. News and Opinion are not necessarily inclusive of balanced impartial critical Facts. Example: “study” finds nothing bad to say about Hitler or Fascism. study sample turns out to be eight Nazis hiding out in Brazil funded by KKK. So “peer review” then selective and distorted. Similar practices for “ climate change” ……all political games and money …. Just as you should not get Insurance advice from Banks, NEVER listen to Politicians on Health or Education. Yes it’s their Business but they simply cannot be trusted to advise or act properly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Walker88 Posted December 14, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted December 14, 2021 Good topic, and a very dangerous trend in the world, indicating the bad side of 'access to information', when information is manufactured by bad actors (e.g., Performance Artists like Alex Jones or Tucker Carlson, or Russia's GRU working as the Internet Research Agency) or batshoot crazies (like David Icke). There are degrees of ignorance, however. Folks who think Bill Gates is injecting microchips in them via Covid vaccines are simply too stupid to be allowed to procreate, unless the world is short of janitors. On the other hand, sometimes knowledge of people or entities is so limited that things like Hollywood B-fare or pulp fiction can influence opinions. An example of this latter ignorance is many people's beliefs about the CIA, where some consider it an all knowing, all powerful entity existing everywhere, keeping files on everyone. Reality is quite different than many people believe. Views about cabals 'controlling the world' are silly, but those without knowledge or experience might be forgiven for believing such drivel. The fact is there are far too many variables for any person or group to effectively control much of anything. Also, the 'elite' compete with each other, they don't cooperate on balance. Anybody really think Musk likes Bezos? Chinese billionaires like Indian billionaires? Places like Davos are not conferences aimed at controlling the sheeple; they are places rich folks go to show off the interiors of their new Gulfstream. it's a place folks go to compare (nickname for Richard) sizes. Same with 'clubs' like Bilderberg or Bohemian Grove. Heck, Bezos sent (nickname for Richard) pics to his paramour....he's not a demigod, he's quite human with faults most others don't have (unless sending nickname for Richard pictures is more common than I suspect). As for entities like the agency, it is in its interest to be considered BOTH omnipotent and a goofball organization, because that keeps its adversaries guessing. It traditionally is also a fallguy for Administrations who screw up. Iraq and WMD is a case in point. Because a negative cannot be proven, the agency could only give a minimal opinion on the existence of WMD (<15% chance, 85% chance Saddam nixed his stuff after the first Gulf War and just wanted to enjoy his 'booze, broads and palaces' and not be overthrown by outside forces). It was Cheney and the Neocons hellbent on war, and they co-opted then DCI Tenet. Anyway, disinformation and 'research' is likely going to bring about the end of democracy....until such time as autocrats and self-appointed monarchs are again sent to the guillotine and the world tries democracy again. We move in circles, and society is now moving headstrong into a new Dark Age. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
