Washington Times: "Mr. Gleick has done far more harm to his cause than he has done to the Heartland Institute."

EDITORIAL: Global warming's desperate caper - Washington Times

The voices shouting that “the sky is falling” are rewarded with Nobel Prizes, Oscars, research grants, loans and subsidies that essentially are without limit. Compared to this level of support, Heartland couldn’t be more of an underdog, but its bark has the climate billionaires on the run.

...When “scientists” sink to Watergate-style tactics to attack the motivation of an underfunded group that has different opinions, they betray their weakness. Climate alarmists know the science isn’t really settled, and they fear their billion-dollar gravy train will disappear once the public realizes it’s been had. In the end, Mr. Gleick has done far more harm to his cause than he has done to the Heartland Institute.
