Top Ten Reasons MSNBC won't Report ClimateGate and One Reason I'm Glad

One can only wonder why MSNBC does not capitalize on the biggest story in Science. And wonder I will! With the damning evidence against them, you might wonder why this makes me happy.

Why MSNBC won't report Climategate:
  1. MSNBC is made up of all evil scientists
  2. MSNBC is made up of people that know nothing about science and don't understand the issue.
  3. MSNBC who is owned by GE stands to gain from Cap and Trade (investing arm), Warming Initiatives (Wind Generators and high efficiency equipment) and green consumer products (diswashers, blenders, etc). The incremental value gained by a climategate story is pennies compared to the potential loss of these other divisions.
  4. They are promoting a left wing agenda for big government, against the other corporations, whose only hope to be sustained is by artificial means (i.e., propaganda).
  5. MSNBC consists of idealists who think this direction is better for humankind than introducing a lot of inconvenience debate that would stymy the movement. Lenin was an idealist too.
  6. It's embarrassing to them. MSNBC has gone too far down the road, criticizing opponents and distorting facts. It will take a long time to come to grips with the fact that they were wrong.
  7. They can't take the backlash of vicious environmental groups that attack them whenever they wander from the true faith.
  8. They are self-destructive and suicidal. Hey, they are in decline anyway. The idea of living up to some journalistic standard seems distant and unimportant.
  9. They are secretly writing a huge expose' under cover of the liberal banner. The Guardian in the UK did this (although now are somewhat reverting back).
  10. They were in on a secret plant to maintain the U.S. in world domination. By capping all the developing countries, they hoped to keep us in the lead. Not by innovation but by suppression.
  11. (extra credit) They accidentally deleted all records.

But I'm glad about it. It's gone so far that they can no longer discredit climategate, only themselves and their viewers. How embarrassing in a social situation to know nothing of such an important story after following MSNBC news faithfully! It damages the credibility of the entire news service.
