The Guardian is really turning into the most extraordinary publication. In its desperation to stay afloat financially it has ditched professional journalists left, right and centre (or at least left, leftish and very left), replacing them with a mixture of hippies and ecoactivists. The results are inevitable.

This morning we find that the paper has published what looks as if it's going to be a spectacular own goal, with Dana Nuccitelli fabricating what he says is a Richard Lindzen prediction, misrepresenting another one by Hansen and generally making the whole publication look like something out of the darkest recesses of the internet. It's astonishing stuff.

Steve Goddard is on the case here, here, here, and here. Monckton's take is at WUWT.

Pull up a seat and enjoy the fun.
