John Hinderaker at Power Line.

When we started this web site, we spent a lot of time criticizing what was then called the “mainstream media.” Over the years, I have done this less and less. Twenty years ago, the legacy press at least pretended to be fair and objective its reporting, so we pointed out errors and biases. But today, the pretense is gone: most media outlets are shills for the Democratic National Committee, and make no bones about it. Pointing out bias has become mostly pointless.

At times, though, it can still be entertaining. I wrote yesterday about Susanna Gibson, Democratic candidate for the Virginia House, who raised money (likely for her campaign, it appears) by going on a porn site called Chaturbate and performing sex acts with her husband while asking the audience–she had more than 5,000 followers–for “tips.” You can think that is depraved or you can consider it enterprising, but there is zero doubt about what she did.

Unless you are reading the New York Times. In its effort to help the Democrats in Virginia, the Times slides from spin to outright falsehoods. It headlines: “State House Candidate in Virginia Condemns Leak of Sex Tapes.” But there was no “leak.” Susanna Gibson performed sex acts in public, for money. The videos were posted by her, not someone else. Nor was there a “sex tape,” which carries connotations of nonconsensual posting of a private video by another party. No: Gibson did this herself, publicly, for cash. And the paper’s suggestion that the story here is Gibson’s “condemnation” of Republicans, not what she did, is risible.

One of the problems with evaluating global warming claims is that the temperature record has been corrupted. Custodians of the various temperature data sets are generally global warming zealots, and they have gone back and changed the temperature records of the past, e.g. by lowering the temperatures that were recorded during the 1930s, to make “climate change” hysteria seem more plausible.

At the same time that records custodians make such dubious “adjustments,” they do nothing to compensate for factors that really do distort the record, pre-eminently the Urban Heat Island Effect. There is no question that weather stations in cities are affected by urban development that increases local temperatures for reasons that have nothing to do with climate. A large part of the increase in temperatures that has been recorded over the last 50 years is due to the Urban Heat Island Effect.
