Mann: "I think [Climategate] was a crime against humanity. It's a crime against the planet."

THE HOCKEY SCHTICK: Hit them with the Hockey Schtick

In an interview entitled "Hit Them with the Hockey Stick," Michael Mann falsely claims that the National Academy of Sciences "confirmed" Mann's hockey stick, that temperature changes "have occurred either at the upper end of projections or even above the range of predictions," and that "hide the decline" refers to "bad tree ring data." The delusional Mann states, "I think [Climategate] was a crime against humanity. It's a crime against the planet." Mann's interview regurgitates much of the nauseating diatribe from his work of fiction, The Hockey Stick and the Climate Wars.
