Actually, it was a load of crap. It repeated lies like "Most of his tirade was based on the MSM's coverage of alternating scientific predictions of global warming and cooling over the last 100 years." (referring to Greg Easterbrook). It didn't mention the fact that the MSM had given very nearly balanced coverage to the scientific consensus, and a small band of dissenters. It didn't mention the 'think tanks' which have spent considerable effort casting doubt upon the science.
