This week's Mainstream Media Scream features a roaring approval from outdoor adventurist Bear Grylls who took President Obama into the Alaska wilderness for NBC.

"What you've done with your climate change plan is the most significant thing any single human being has ever done to protect planet," he gushed, easily winning our weekly award for the top liberal media scream.



It occurred Thursday on NBC and featured an hour of Grylls and Obama walking through the Alaska bush country for his show Running Wild With Bear Grylls.

Some of the quotes:

"What you've done with your climate change plan is the most significant thing any single human being has ever done to protect planet." Grylls ended the hour by praying "for him and for protection over the incredible stuff he's doing," declaring "I'm in awe of what you're doing to protect our planet."

"I read somewhere that what you've done with your climate change plan is the most significant thing any single human being has ever done to protect planet. That's amazing because there are so many skeptics out there."

"One of the things I really wanted to do was to be able to say a little prayer with him, and it's always awkward doing that. But, you know, here's a man who really has the weight of the world on his shoulders and everyone's always taking from him, and I just wanted, just for ten seconds, just to be able to pray for him and for protection over the incredible stuff he's doing. 'Lord, I thank you for the president's great strength of courage and character. Bless and protect his work and his family. Forgive us when we fall short, and help us to be strong in you. Amen.' You're amazing. Honestly, it's been such a privilege. As I said, I'm genuinely, I'm in awe of what you're doing to protect our planet."

Media Research Center Vice President of Research Brent Baker explains our pick: "Just when you thought figures in the media couldn't get any more sycophantic toward President Obama, NBC turns over an hour of prime time to a Brit in the midst of a bromance with Obama. Forgive me if I don't want to be forgiven for falling short of meeting Obama's ideals."

Rating: Four out of five screams.
