Ranting that Passes for Journalism

Time now for another deconstruction of Newsweek's alarmist-in-Chief, Sharon Begley.

Yes folks, this time she's equated airport delays with the dire consequences of global---oops, I mean climate change. She's also taken notes from Gore's new vocabulary that you can't use “global warming” because “climate change” can apply to any weather scenario.

Yesterday it was raining. Today it's sunny. That's called climate change, but Begley is again worried about those of us who don't care about global warming and she has a theory:

Memo to everyone who doesn’t care about climate change—you know who you are—because you figure 1) more heat waves? I have A.C.; 2) rising sea levels? I don’t live in Bangladesh, and I have enough money to keep rebuilding the sea walls around my weekend place; 3) more droughts and floods, causing food shortages? I won’t have any problem buying whatever I need. Scientists have identified consequences of climate change that you won’t be able to buy your way out of: the worst airplane delays you can imagine.
