Mad scientist or paid sponsor?

Tonight while flipping through the news channels I stopped on my first love Fox News.

I hear the announcer state that “next we are going to talk to a scientist who does not believe that global warming is a problem.”

I had to hear what could possibly be his explanation for why global warming is not a problem.

Of course the first thing I noticed when he was on was that the city skyline behind Dr. Richard Lindzen had a huge Citgo logo right beside his head. What was that all about?????

Dr. Lindzen went on to explain that the computer models were far from accurate and that all the scientist that agree on global warming are either bought off or being pressured into it.

What a crock of shit. Why is it that when Fox News has a right wing guest on there is never a counter argument put forward, but if they have anyone who leans to the left at all they have 3 right wingers to counter every argument and never give the progressive thinker the last word.

I went to look up Dr Lindzen online to see if I could check out his work. I found this.

The November 10, 2004 online version of Reason magazine reported that Lindzen is "willing to take bets that global average temperatures in 20 years will in fact be lower than they are now."[15] Climatologist James Annan,[16] who has offered multiple bets that global temperatures will increase,[17] contacted Lindzen to arrange a bet.[18] Annan offered to pay 2:1 odds in Lindzen's favor if temperatures declined, but said that Lindzen would only accept a bet if the payout was 50:1 or better in his favor. No bet occurred [19].---Wikipedia

Sounds like he isn’t willing to put his money where his mouth is.
