Daily Kos: Michael Mann is a Modern Hero and we need to acknowledge that!

These blogs and postings [criticizing Mann's junk science] are part of a coordinated effort financed by the oils and coal industries, among others, linked into a right wing dominated set of publications and news channels.

Mann describes the way they work. It is something that makes the Nazi propaganda machine look primitive. To counter this, without the massive amounts of funding the deniers have, Mann created RealClimate, a blog where rapid responses to the lies and organized attacks could be countered.
