Bunkum!

There is extreme weather most years, somewhere on the planet.

Yeah, Texas is getting a lot of rain. A few years ago they were suffering severe droughts. India has massive heat. Britain had the coldest winter in decades.

Media drums up these things as scare tactics to make headlines.

A few decades ago the Weather Channel went gaga over El Nino. The next year, La Nina.

It is nothing more than selling sensationalism.

It is nothing more than selling sensationalism.

Almost 100 years ago, we were told that free speech did not include "yelling fire in a crowded theater."

Now, "yelling fire in a crowded theater" is pretty much all the MSM do.
