Kelly Rigg: Skepticgate: Revealing Climate Denialists for What They Are
I say it's time to give the skeptics a taste of their own medicine. Borrowing a term first tweeted by Andy Revkin of the New York Times, let's officially call this "Skepticgate" - a new synonym for the cynical, profit-motivated efforts of the Kochs and Exxons of the world to keep the public disinformed about the real and present dangers of unabated fossil fuel consumption.

Google "climategate" and you get 895,000 results. It's high time we expose the real "gate" in the room. So today I present a challenge:

How many results can we get on "Skepticgate" by the year's end?

After reading the comments on the article I feel sorry for the folk at Huff Post. They really are living in a complete dream world divorced from anything even remotely resembling reality

You know if she used Bing, she'd have gotten more returns for Climategate because, as we all know Google is an evil corporation in the pay of the denialists...oh, wait.
