News Media Complicity With Climate Science Deniers | Pete Altman's Blog | Switchboard, from NRDC
Just 25 years ago, more than half of Americans (55 percent) thought that reporters generally got their facts right, according to the Pew Research Center. As of last fall, that view was shared by less than one in three Americans (29 percent). When Pew does the same survey next year, it wouldn’t surprise me to see that number on the perceived accuracy of the news media to slide even lower.Twitter / Candice Jackson, Esq

Why do so many green programs fail, delivering less than promised for more than allocated? It’s because, first, they are government-run, and, second, the air of holiness about them stops people from asking the most basic questions about delivery. And so it will prove with Gillard’s latest scheme, not least the extra help she’ll give to wind, solar and tidal power.
