CNN Meteorologist Rob Marciano clapped his hands and exclaimed, "Finally," in response to a report that a British judge might ban the movie "An Inconvenient Truth" from UK schools because, according to "American Morning," "it is politically biased and contains scientific inaccuracies."

"There are definitely some inaccuracies," Marciano added. "The biggest thing I have a problem with is this implication that Katrina was caused by global warming."

UPDATE: Marciano also sarcastically said, "the Oscars, they give out awards for fictional films as well."


This is the same guy who a few weeks ago said "At least they didn't cap her!" while making the 'gangster with a gun' pose on live tv, in reference to that woman who was tasered a bunch of times and hit her head on the cop car. HE NEEDS TO BE FIRED! I've already wrote in countless times about the inapropriate behavior displayed regarding the taser story, now this. Its like fox news invaded CNN.

1. another reason CNN is that bastion of liberalism

the right moans about :eyes:

:grr:

well fuck you Rob Marciano!

CNN is only a pretend liberal lite network

in truth, they are just about the same thing as the rest are, right?

5. Yep, hacks trying desperatly to hold on to their ratings...

They are so far removed from Edward R. Murrow that to call them "journalists" is an insult to the great one...

2. CNN knows alot about fiction.

CNN=Certainly Not News.

3. I don't believe in Rob Marciano.

4. This dude's got a lot of nerve!

Let someone taser his ass and let's see how he feels then. That's why I stopped watching CNN 'cause they're an extension of Faux Noise!

6. But it wasn't banned ... and nothing wrong with calling it controversial

So there.

7. does anybody know what rob's credentials as a "meteorologist" are? does he have any?

[Arugula Latte]

8. Ah, crap. He used to be our local weather guy here in Portland.

I'm disappointed he's "grown up" this way. :(

[Beaverhausen]

9. First off, the movie states Katrina "may have been caused" by global warming

and he has a problem with that? What a doofus.

[Orsino]

10. Overpaid prize-stroker...

...whose meteorology training apparently didn't cover the difference between weather and climate.

11. ah don't give this guy another thought - he's a hack...

has been, a never was, never will be, subpar, substandard, not up-to-snuff, incoherent, incompetent, inadequate, irrelevant, incontinent, teleprompter reader! Okay I might be exaggerating a bit... I don't know if he suffers from in incontinence.

12. Will the American Meteorological Society pull his accreditation

I saw an article that the AMS has come down on the side of real science and that idiots who go against real science may lose their accreditation. This idiot currently is accredited

[pimpbot]

13. Good point

Maybe we should write some emails to the AMS as well. At the very best I would think they wouldn't want members to spout random personal comments without a factual backup.
