I can’t remember the last time I heard a “mainstream” talking head say “global warming” or “greenhouse effect.” They DID rebrand it. And continue to do so (”climate crisis,” “climate emergency,” “climate justice,” etc.).
Journalists today are paid political propagandists and NOTHING more.

And a man can give birth.

President Bush’s speeches on the environment show that the terms “global warming” and
“environmentalist” had largely disappeared by late last summer. The terms appeared in a number of President Bush’s speeches in 2001, but now the White House fairly consistently uses “climate change” and “conservationist.”...
Many new Republican communication strategies match the recommendations of the 16-page environmental memorandum put together by the Luntz Research Companies, the consulting firm run by Mr. Luntz, who was also one of the drafters of “Contract with America,” the manifesto of House Republicans under Newt Gingrich, the former speaker...
