The TRUTH doesn’t need PR firms. Only greedy, environmentalist wackos out to steal the big bucks from Americans need them.

He is writing a serious article here at PJ, not a satire as at Scrappleface: Scott Ott co-hosts a news, commentary and humor show called Trifecta on PJTV. He created and hosted the 20-part series on the Constitution titled Freedom’s Charter. His satire site, ScrappleFace, spawned three books and praise from Rush Limbaugh, Glenn Beck, Mark Levin and many others.

My apologies...I will read his article without considering his satirical history.

Satire? Well Ok, then. Nicely done.

Not satire?

Well, then...Dixie Chick ‘em (the PR firms).

OK, so there’s no money in flacking for “deniers”. Might as well make a virtue of necessity.

Doesn’t anyone in the ever so enlightened elites that rule us feel any loyalty to the ideals of free speech, free inquiry, and the integrity and objectivity of science?

"it makes decisions about which clients to serve on a case-by-case basis."

A right now denied to conservative Christians.

These companies have seen what happens to those who don’t toe the leftist line, they can get shut down.

Sounds like some experienced people should set up shop just to serve such “orphans” as we’ve described. Sounds like it would be a nice little niche market for someone.

If there’s a void, somebody will, eventually, fill it.

Sounds like the S. P. L. C.

I suppose global warming explains the unusually cool summer we’ve had, right?

In what looks like the final nail in the coffin for climate-change denial, some of the world’s most credible professional organizations have just announced they will no longer work with “climate deniers.”

Speaking as one who spent a career in the advertising/PR realm, I can assure you that PR people don't know squat about science and couldn't explain why there are seasons if you spotted them the vernal equinox and the Tropic of Capricorn.

That’s part of the satire, although it’s not a satire piece in the strict sense.
