[Vision2020] Journalist my ass

[Kai Eiselein]

Real journalists seek the truth with no preconcieved notions and report facts without personal opinion.
Considering that  Mark Hertsgaard attempted this "interview" with members of the Sierra Club and Generation Hot in tow, it is only obvious that Hertsgaard had intention of reporting, only inflaming.
At best, Hertsgaard engages in editorializing. In practice, he does nothing than generate propaganda for a cause he believes in.

> 
> Yet the average American would not know this is the case. Why not?
> Because discussion about climate change in the U.S. is dominated by

> And inside the Beltway, denial of mainstream climate science is
> regarded as a legitimate opinion rather than as an unfounded oddity.
> 
> As I wrote in an opinion article for Politico that appeared the

> 
> And here's why this journalistic failure matters so much:
> 
> "Despite having no more scientific credibility than the Flat Earth
> Society, the climate cranks have held our nation's climate policy
> hostage for decades now. One reason the United States has done so
> little to reduce greenhouse gas emissions over the past twenty years
> is that our government and media have listened as much to climate
> cranks as to real scientists."
> 
> So, accompanied by members of the Sierra Club and Generation Hot --
> the two billion young people around the world who have been condemned
> to spend the rest of their lives coping with the hottest climate our
> civilization has ever known -- I went to Capitol Hill to call the
> cranks to account and urge my colleagues in the rest of the media to
> do a better job of presenting the scientific truth about climate
> change.
> 
> We spoke with a number of leading deniers, most notably Republican
> Senator James Inhofe of Oklahoma. Inhofe had no response when asked
> why his Republicans are the only major political party in the world
> that still denies the science behind climate change. Instead, he said
> his scientists knew better than the overwhelming majority of

> 
> You can watch our video of the event here:

> 
> It's hilarious to hear the right wing describe our questioning of

> UI gets grant to study climate change
> 
> MOSCOW, Feb 19, 2011 (The Lewiston Morning Tribune - McClatchy-Tribune
> Information Services via COMTEX) -- The University of Idaho announced the
> largest single grant in its history Friday, a $20 million award to study and
> plan for how climate change will affect cereal grain production in the
> Pacific Northwest.
> 
> The five-year U.S. Department of Agriculture grant will be administered by
> the UI and shared with Washington State University and the University of
> Oregon.
> 
> "Warmer weather and more variable precipitation are coming," said UI
> entomologist Sanford Eigenbrode by phone from Washington, D.C.
> 
> That change in climate will require a change in how Northwest farmers
> operate so crop yields and agricultural jobs can be protected, Eigenbrode
> said.
> 
> He and a multidisciplinary team from the three land-grant universities will
> focus on the cereal production systems of the Columbia River basin and
> plateau and the Palouse to adjust management strategies under the projected
> climate change scenarios for the region.
> 
> Cereal grains are a large portion of the regional economy, with sales of
> $1.5 billion in 2009. That year, the Northwest grew 13 percent of the
> nation's wheat and 80 percent of its soft white wheat exports, according to
> the UI.
> 
> UI geography professors Von P. Walden and John Abatzoglou said regional
> average temperatures are expected to rise by 2 degrees Celsius by 2050.
> 
> "It shifts the distribution of temperatures so that you might realize more
> extreme events," Walden said.
> 
> That could mean decreased snowpacks due to more rain than snowfall, he said.
> 
> To put a 2 degree Celsius increase in temperature in perspective, Walden
> said that during the last ice age, the planet was only 8-10 degrees Celsius
> colder than today. "So a 2 degree Celsius change in the other direction is a
> pretty big difference." The grant announcement brought together
> administrators, faculty members, students and the media -- both in person
> and via teleconference -- in the UI agricultural science and biotechnology
> buildings.
> 
> Deans spoke about the importance of the research for the future of crop
> production, education and team building within and between their respective
> institutions. Vice presidents spoke of the importance of federal funding to
> supplement ever-shrinking state support for research.
> 
> But the future of the entire $20 million grant is uncertain. With
> Republicans in Congress pushing for deep budget cuts, especially in the
> areas of earmarks and special projects, some worried the celebration could
> be short-lived.
> 
> "All of the funding agencies are in the crosshairs right now," UI Vice
> President for Research and Economic Development Jack McIver said.
> 
> The first year of funding for the project is committed, "as far as I know,"
> McIver said. But funding for the remaining years will be up to Congress.
> 
> Without federal funding, this type of work will be impossible, said John
> Hammel, dean of the UI College of Agricultural and Life Sciences.
> 
> "These competitive grants are going to be more and more important to getting
> these projects done," Hammel said.
> 
> Oregon State University College of Agricultural Sciences Dean Sonny
> Ramasway, speaking by phone, said projects like the climate change study are
> already being hit hard in current budget proposals in the U.S. House of
> Representatives. Defunding them will harm American competitiveness in global
> markets, he said.
> 
> And McIver said the funding will save faculty and staff jobs at the
> universities, and keep some faculty members from leaving for better-paying
> jobs by supplementing their salaries. It will also fund more than a dozen
> new graduate students.
> 
> The educational aspect of the project will also reach into K-12 classrooms,
> Eigenbrode said. The universities have already conducted a survey of 1,000
> teachers to see what kinds of materials and knowledge they need to
> incorporate climate change lessons in their classrooms.
> 
> Eventually, summer training sessions for teachers will be conducted, he
> said.
> 
> In all, 22 principal investigators, 14 graduate students, three
