EPA Chief: Climate Change Is Fact Because Bad Weather Leads the News

EPA administrator Gina McCarthy said there is no need to continue debating the science behind climate change.

“I can remember a day when the weather report was in the middle of the domestic and international news and took about a minute and a half. It wasn’t the news. When you go on the news today the first thing you’ll hear about is the weather. So there is a dramatic difference in the way people perceive the ability of the climate to impact their lives because they’re feeling it today,” McCarthy said during an event sponsored by the Christian Science Monitor.

“I think we need to make it very clear and not continue to debate the science. I think we need to get more people speaking about it than EPA, or NOAA or NASA. I mean, those people are great and looked at as being experts, not necessarily the best at making climate change science personal for people so they understand it,” she added.

The local news stations in central Florida are obssessed with the weather. And it rains almost every day here in the summer. Local stations have teams of forecasters that breathlessly report the weather as if it were a movie audition, , arms flailing, perfect enunciation and big smiles.

I only like watching Julie Broughton on local 6, and not for the weather!

It's been like that since the 1920’s when commercial radio began.

People are interested in the weather.

I wonder if the next Socialist scam for the government money will involve time...

“Science denier.”

No! Global warming changes the color of the ink! Old, 90’s ink turns bluer because decades of heat changes he very chemistry!

My father hated one local weather guy on TV and refused to watch him - not knowing the guy had to move to Florida with health problems.
My dad retired to Fort Myers in the early 90s ... turned on the TV one night and - surprise - there he was!

Weather leads the news when those who publish or broadcast the news make it so. If the weather doesn’t fit the agenda this week, look on page 76 or at the weather report five minutes before the broadcast ends.

I also have some vague recollection of a lady named Camille....

You're too young for Edna, I guess!

Have you seen any news about elephant attacks in the U.S. since Obama was elected?

No, but neither have I seen any news about black youth rampaging, only about "teens".
