The BBC and the CBC are all over the preposterous Arctic Ice scare story from the Catlin Arctic Ice expedition. The BBC quotes the activists as saying the ice "could" be gone in ten years while, strangely, the CBC says it "will" be gone.
But there are significant reasons to dismiss the credibility of these reports. Anthony Watts has called this activist expedition "the scientific joke of the year" and gives us his top ten reasons why the Catlin Arctic Ice Survey data can’t be trusted.
And just when I thought the mainstream media (actually the BBC) were getting a clue about warmist propaganda. I am afraid we are going to see a lot more of this scare-mongering leading up to the Copenhagen conference in December.
By the way, if you feel sufficiently annoyed about propaganda dressed as news you can complain to the BBC here. And to the CBC here. I did.
