contact CNN about Glenn Beck Misinformation special on Global Warming |
|
Action Alert! On May 2, CNN Headline News aired the special Exposed: The Climate of Fear. The program was hosted by Glenn Beck, whose long history of factual distortions on global warming has been well documented by Media Matters.
Use the following contact information to tell CNN that this issue is too important to get the facts wrong and mislead the American people. Eight of the ten people on this program have ties to the energy companies, have already disputed global warming- or both. It is outrageous to me that CNN, once known as the most trusted name in news, would go this far.
