French television weatherman fired for doubting global warming
The coming dark age: A leading French television weatherman has been fired because he published a book expressing skepticism about global warming.
He said he was inspired to write the book after France’s Foreign Minister Laurent Fabius met with TV meteorologists and asked them to highlight climate change issues in their broadcasts. “I was horrified by this speech,” Verdier told French magazine Les Inrockuptibles last month. In his book, Verdier accuses state-funded climate change scientists of having been “manipulated” and “politicised”, even accusing the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) of publishing deliberately misleading data
In other words, he dared to expose the political roots of global warming that has nothing to do with science, and was thus immediately fired.
