Sometimes the truth is much sweeter than the syrupy environmentalism of the national media. While hyping the alleged effects on climate change, NBC’s May 6 “Nightly News” tried to localize the impact by citing a different problem in each region. The broadcast played a clip of Burr Morse, a seventh-generation maple syrup producer from Montpelier, Vermont, stating that this season’s weather had been too warm. Contrary to this clip’s implications, Morse told the MRC’s Business and Media Institute that cold weather actually did more to harm this year’s maple syrup season.

"meanwhile in East Tennessee, I had my best year for making maple syrup since I began 5 years ago"

That's wonderful praise God. I didn't even know that you guys had a syrup crop.
