NH public television and the myth they voluntarily propagandize


I watched a program on NH Public Television over the weekend called NH Outlook. They did a p program on global warming and it was deeply troubling. The program's entire premise was that Global warming and climate change is occurring and we are causing it. This premise was purported by one person after another who "felt" that it was happening - usually based on Al Gore's movie and really nothing else.

There was no science (because none exists) investigated and more importantly there was no (none, nada) look at the other side of the issue, like the lack of a consensus among scientists. No one who believes it is not happening was interviewed whether it was a person on the street or a historian that is armed with reams of evidence to show the ebbs and flows of climate change.

Is this how public television does things (rhetorical)? They take a myth and report it as fact and refuse to talk to anyone who has evidence that their belief is actually a myth? This appears to be propaganda financed by the taxpayers to get people to ultimately believe that they need to allow government to control their personal lives and choices in order to be in the good graces of the religion known as global warming.
