Al Gore Blames the Media for Global-Warming Inaction

Here’s what he had to say. I would argue that he is, um, wrong. Anyone who can say with a straight face that the mainstream media’s portrayal of global warming has been overly skeptical deserves — well, an Oscar.

P.S.: David Remnick wrote a very interesting essay on Gore in this week’s New Yorker (and his long Gore profile from a year or two ago was fantastic); I very much would have liked to see the Saturday Night Live sketch described therein.

P.P.S.: How does Remnick serve as the New Yorker’s editor and write more articles, and better ones, than most of the writers there? Forget Seth Roberts’s sugar water; I want for breakfast whatever Remnick has.
