Green Lobbyists Really Do Run The Age

The Age is so religiously green that it won't re****t the facts about
global warming. It turns out that this is no accident. As Media Watch
reveals, the Age coverage of Earth Hour was literally dictated by green
group WWF to Age editor-in-chief Andrew Jaspan.
An example of one of three WWF directions to Jaspan, who dutifully
obeyed each one:
We would love the fa****on story to get a good run. This has been given
to Orietta and is about the fa****on industry's unified sup****t for Earth
Hour.
WWF demands, Jaspan obeys:
I've never seen such a derogation of duty by an editor.
Mind you, other arms of Fairfax have also stopped re****ting and started
inventing in the global warming cause. Media Watch (yes! again!) has
caught the Brisbane Times online re****ting Earth Hour as a tremendous
success:
Brisbane made history this evening with the city's first official Earth
Hour going off without a hitch. Kellie Caught, of Earth Hour organiser
World Wildlife Fund (WWF), said she was thrilled with the response.
One small problem with that re****t. It was published 24 hours before
Earth Hour occured. Jaspan has a rival, after all.

"Attributing global climate change to human CO2 production is akin to
trying to diagnose an automotive problem by ignoring the engine
(analogous to the Sun in the climate system) and the transmission (water
vapour) and instead focusing entirely, not on one nut on a rear wheel,
which would be analogous to total CO2, but on one thread on that nut,
which represents the human contribution." Dr. Timothy Ball, Chairman of
