Inspectors general look into abuse of climate scientsts

The Washington Post reports:

Prompted by a request this fall by 14 Democratic senators, the IGs are examining whether political appointees have prevented climate researchers at NASA and the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration from conveying their findings to the public.

Muzzling scientists like this is propagandistic nonsense. It hurts us all, it weakens the policy process and prevents the public from making informed decisions. If political appointees are censoring scientists, they deserve what they get.
