Good riddance...
| Quote: | NBC Fires Weather Channel Environmental Unit
Some on-camera meteorologists also let go
NBC Universal made the first of potentially several rounds of staffing cuts at The Weather Channel (TWC) on Wednesday, axing the entire staff of the "Forecast Earth" environmental program during the middle of NBC's "Green Week," as well as several on-camera meteorologists.
<snip>
Forecast Earth was hosted by former CNN anchor Natalie Allen, with contributions from climate expert Heidi Cullen. It was the sole program on TWC that focused on global climate change, which raises the question of whether the station will still report on the subject. Cullen's future role at the network is not known.
The Washington Post - cont'd |
Someone refresh my memory. Is Allen or Cullen the Weather Channel enviro-whacko that stirred up a controversy some time ago? |

Bingo! Lew. Thanks...

Another (cough) "scientist" with a global warmism meal-ticket. |

What is amazing to me is how they conveniently ignore the fact that there has been no warming trend since the 90's. Quite the reverse, were seeing cold spells that we haven't seen in years. IOW, everything is normal, but of course you can't make a career out of that.

Make NO mistake...global warmism is about institutionalizing "Green" power and the attendant bureaucracy it will establish.
Scares the hell outta me. |

One of the problems this instituting socialism is that it needs causes and tasks for its followers to perform so that they "feel" like they are contributing.
Unfortunately for us, one of their favorites is the environment, i.e., green stuff, whales, global warming and other imaginary problems.
These people will cost us our fortunes, ruin our way of life, and impose their beliefs on us just so that they can "feel good" about theirselves.
