5 Ways the Liberal Media Devoted a Decade to Gore’s Climate Apocalypse
2016 was supposedly the “point of no return” for taking action on global warming, according to former Vice President Al Gore. His tipping point received widespread scorn on the right, resulting in an “Armageddon” clock posted on Rush Limbaugh’s site — that turns zero Jan. 27.But don’t expect the liberal news media to remind anyone of Gore’s hyperbolic claim 10 years later.After all, the media spent those years embracing Gore’s climate agenda, promoting it and him repeatedly. At the same time, they ignored critics, errors, failed predictions and his hypocrisy. Just as they will likely ignore that Gore’s time is up.Gore premiered the cinematic version of his global warming apocalypse slideshow, An Inconvenient Truth, at Sundance 10 years ago, on Jan. 24, 2006. A few months later, it went global with a movie theater wide release, making him the “darling of Hollywood” and the liberal news media. That attention helped him win an Oscar and a Nobel Peace Prize.To the media, he looked like a “genius,” and when Al went to the Oscar’s, NBC Today co-host Meredith Vieira cooed that he was the “coolest guy in the room.”Reporting from 2006 Sundance Film Festival, the Associated Press wrote, “And politicians and corporations have been ignoring the issue for decades, to the point that unless drastic measures to reduce greenhouse gases are taken within the next 10 years, the world will reach a point of no return, Gore said.”
