The Global Warming Policy Foundation report into the various “inquiries” that have been held into Climategate was published yesterday, and author Andrew Montford’s very thorough analysis paints a disturbing picture of whitewash and fudge. As regular B-BBC commenter John Anderson lucidly points out in response to my previous post and on What’s Up With That?, coverage of the report by the MSM – even the Guardian – notes that Mr Montford had landed some disturbing punches on the alarmists’ conduct. Predictably, for the BBC’s Roger Harrabin, it’s a different approach. First he claims that the real issue raised by the report is a call for the resignation of the head of the IPCC; second, he gives just three short lip-service parapagraphs to the main substance of Mr Montford’s analysis, buried towards the end of the story; and thirdly, he gives far more space to blustering negative responses from a fanatical warmist MP – who repeats the mantra that the vast majority of scientists believe in global warming, so they must be right, and that those who don’t aren’t scientists – and the UEA, who of course continue to defend their entrenched position. You can rely on our Roger to distort or misrepresent everything to do with climate scepticism.
