LA Times won't publish op-ed articles that deny global warming. Thoughts?

Fighting back against news companies that won't publish climate science. It's fair and probably will start happening more.

I apologize if this has already been discussed here.

It will have exactly the opposite effect intended. It will give climate change denial more credibility.

Do they publish op-eds from people who claim to be abducted by aliens? Sorry, we can't give every crackpot a chance.

You're just now realizing newspapaers are propagandist machines to brainwash all the little stupid sheep into believing their opinions?

What's next, age of the earth? Evolution? Please child.

And that won't show pics of pigs flying.

What you should be concerned about is that none of the US mainstream media dare be critical of Israel

I think this thread should be deleted and never spoken of again.

The same way that the whacko nutjobs at MSNBC never have on opposing viewpoints or why Al Gore will never debate his crock of crap "Global Warming" ... their ideas and promulgations can't stand the light of day, i.e., can't stand up to true debate. They can't argue their ideas on merit so they just shun away from giving any opposing viewpoints equal time. They are chickensh@ts who know they are quacksalvers as well. What a patheti combination.

Darn tootin! They won't publish my letters either.

Can you intelligently defend the psuedo-science behind the anti-climate change stance?

Yeah, who does that "editor" think he is? Some kind of editor?

You are correct.

If some whack writes a well written piece, the la times should not automatically say they will not publish it because it goes against the vast majority of scientists views. Let the fools be exposed.

Then maybe they should publish it in the comics section. No need to give this nonsense op-ed placement. Or do you want to be reading about all kinds of absurd conspiracist bulls\hit on page 3? UFO sightings, Holocaust denial, astronomy, creationism, 9-11 conspiracy theory, fake Moon landings, trickle-down economics, etc. Then read the National Enquirer. Or watch Fox News.

I don't believe in astronomy either.

Argh, astrology.
