‘Blue Dress’ Update: Media Sat on ClimateGate Info
Planet Gore ^ | Today | Paul Hudson

Posted on 11/23/2009 2:31:56 PM PST by dila813

It turns out that the BBC has for over a month had the information constituting “ClimateGate” — the latest one, anyway, and one that should serve as the global-warming industry’s “Blue Dress Moment,” when the media can no longer ignore the fraud we have been detailing for years to scribblers and producers largely uninterested in pulling the curtain back on this most politically desirable and useful of all story lines.

For all that the establishment media have done in the past dozen years to enable the global-warming climate-change scam (coincidentally, it began at about the same time as the Lewinsky scandal broke) and disparage those who would challenge it, these revelations and the congressional investigations that are now being demanded will only make their plight worse.

Given how deeply invested they are — we already have seen among the posted information e-mails revealing the alarmists’ close working relationship with some of these reporters — it is unlikely they will pivot and suddenly begin exposing the long-running fraud. Both they and the global warming industry are in full damage-control mode, but the damage already seems beyond their ability to manage it. And I couldn’t imagine this fate befalling two nicer groups.

Confirmed, they admit sitting on the story, I would love to hear their justification now that they are exposed.

All I can say is how appropriate I find the “Blue-Dress moment” analogy to be.

I cannot think of a better way of linking the traitorous lib media with the Clinton era and our current communist administration.

It is disturbing,

The hacker only released it to the blogosphere when the Lame Street Media failed to act.

And if he/she hadn’t released it we’d still not have heard about it. I bet they had no intention of ever releasing it (media, BBC), waiting until after Copenhagen if at all.

I loved Don Imus’ words for what was found on the blue dress: “presidue” and “love-ick.”

Wait, I thought the emails were hacked just a couple of days ago. What was the BBC sitting on?

Apparently not, they had the exact same emails days ago, back in October.

I’m not surprised the BBC sat on the story. I just had my timeline off.

So is this story ‘why’ we heard out of Asia last week that Copenhagen conference had been put in the ‘freezer’ until they can figure out a way to heat it up?

The article was saying ...

It turns out that the BBC has for over a month had the information constituting “ClimateGate” — the latest one, anyway, and one that should serve as the global-warming industry’s “Blue Dress Moment,” when the media can no longer ignore the fraud we have been detailing for years to scribblers and producers largely uninterested in pulling the curtain back on this most politically desirable and useful of all story lines.

Well, don't let it be said that "you sat on the story" and didn't see the one video that you should see about this issue... See it now...


It’s one thing to gripe and complain about these things and disagree with it, but it’s quite another to convince your friends and neighbors and relatives and coworkers...

THEREFORE..., it’s also absolutely necessary for people to know the information in the following documentary. If there were simply one video that you could see and/or show people you know... this would be the one...


The following is an excellent video documentary on the so-called “Global Warming” I would recommend it to all FReepers. It’s a very well-made documentary.

“The Great Global Warming Swindle”

If you want to download it, via a BitTorrent site (using a BitTorrent client), you can get it at the following link. Information about BitTorrent protocol and BitTorrent clients and their comparison at these three links (in this sentence). Some additional BitTorrent information here and here.

Download it here...
http://thepiratebay.org/torrent/3635222/The_Great_Global_Warming_Swindle
[This is a high-quality copy, of about a gigabyte in size. This link is the information about it, and you have to click the download link to get it on your BitTorrent client software. You'll also find users' comments here, too.]

It’s worth seeing and having for relatives, friends, neighbors and coworkers to see.

Also, see it online here...
http://www.moviesfoundonline.com/great_global_warming_swindle.php
[this one is considerably lower quality, is a flash video and viewable online, of course..., and also, you can download flash video on a website either yourself or some software doing it.]

Buy it on DVD here...
[this would be the very highest quality version, on a DVD disk, of several gigabytes in size...] At Amazon, it seems to be high-priced now and have only a few copies right now.
http://www.amazon.com/dp/B000WLUXZE

At WAGtv (a UK shop), but don't know about shipping. The price is reasonable, though.

[And..., some information from WAGtv about this item.]

Don’t send me the video anymore, I get it.

Dang, that is like 3 times in a row.

I saw it already.

Actually not posting to you, but only to those who come to this particular thread and read here. It’s for them.

And likewise for any other thread dealing with the issue of Anthropogenic Global Warming...

The BBC reporter may have received SOME of the e-mails on Oct 12th but, since some are dated a little over a week ago, he didn't get them all.

Still this is a curious twist to the story. I agree that it appears that the leaker, probably not a hacker, assumed giving the data to the BBC would get the story out there. Clearly this guy/gal is very inexperienced vis a vis the MSM. What is really laughable is that the BBC missed a scoop on what could be the biggest scientific scandal of the 21st Century. The reporter should be fired. More likely he will be promoted.

More than likely it was an editor that was sitting on the story. A reporter, especially an ambitious one, would recognize a “make your bones” story.

If it really was a Russian Hacker, kinda doubt that cover story, their primary interest would be cash. So perhaps the BBC was being blackmailed over something - or else this information dump would be leaked. Perhaps the BBC failed to cover the minimum bid. Russian hackers have acquired expensive tastes of late.

If it really was a Russian Hacker...

There really is no evidence that the hacker was a Russian except for the fact that the data dump was via a free Russian File Sharing site. That's not enough to convince me. The evidence that it was leaked or "discovered" is much stronger based on the makeup of the file-set (very FOIA-like) and the file name itself: FOI2009.zip. This is not a random set of files. The Happy Birthday and I'm on vacation stuff etc. is totally absent. These files were carefully selected, something an insider could do and only a very knowledgeable hacker could duplicate.

So the best current theory, IMHO, is that these files were prepared by CRU as an FOI response and either leaked by a whistleblower or (foolishly) left in a publicly accessible location on the CRU server and were just stumbled upon by someone with an interest in releasing the data.

In any case, it is quite a story and I think it has legs. Rush spent nearly an hour on it Monday, Beck gave it 10 minutes or so and it was on Bret's show on Fox as well.

Either that or the Russians are entering their end game and DC is as clueless as ever.
