The media does talk about it. Of course it is your choice of media that matters. I look at news releases from NOAA, NASA and so on.
ms manners: Yeah I guess the fact that the record only goes back since approximately 1880 means that the world is not warming right? Seriously, this is the type of people I talk with on a daily basis.
Everyone knows that that the globe is warming, so new records are not news.
Oh, a few people are trapped in a Fox News Universe with an imaginary "reality", and think thedata is fake.
Because the record only goes back a hundred years or so.
Tell me how hot June was ten thousand years ago.
What do you intend to do about the weather. Move somewhere cold.
Because the right wing interest groups have berated the media into not reporting on the climate.
Because it makes the media more money to sell the controversy than to shut it down.
Media Matters, pfft.
What do you intend to do about the weather. Move somewhere cold.
A plane crash war in Gaza all more important.
