I saw a video clip of a recent exchange on the Fox New Channel between program host Stuart Varney and actor Ed Begley Jr. that suggests how the world will end.
The segment focused on some e-mail messages in which scientists in the U.S. and England discussed manipulating climate data to obscure that global temperatures have gotten cooler on the average over the last eight to 10 years, not warmer as in the previous decades.
Varney started the discussion by asking Begley if he ever thought he was wrong about global warming, especially in light of these e-mails.
Since Varney is a conservative and a global-warming denier, and Begley is a liberal and an environmental activist, it was preordained how this would turn out. “Discussion” is a misnomer for it. In no time, the two men were shouting over each other, neither interested in what the other said, both trying simply to drown out the other.
