Default Hacked Emails Show Climate Science Ridden with Rancor

Speaking of "science" and how much faith we have in it

Quote:
A partial review of the emails shows that in many cases, climate scientists revealed that their own research wasn't always conclusive. In others, they discussed ways to paper over differences among themselves in order to present a "unified" view on climate change. On at least one occasion, climate scientists were asked to "beef up" conclusions about climate change and extreme weather events because environmental officials in one country were planning a "big public splash."
Oh wait, I forgot, scientists are human too.

And there are good scientists and bad scientists too.

And then there's Al Gore. Which reminds me, where exactly are their links to these "thousands of documents" the hackers posted on the Internet anyway? The Wall Street Journal certainly didn't take the liberty of providing any links to them... lol.

You've got the first example I've seen anywhere of the real 'mainstream' media though, other than just the bbc with a sob story about how poor Jones' emails were stolen and he's considering police charges

Yes, I notice this yesterday. Then it only got to Fox news. Interesting that it has moved on to other news outfits. I wonder what will become of it?

I'm not going to take sides in this but, the "hacked part" is disturbing to me.

Take a moment to think about it.

As Firewall already said I too would be very careful with hacked emails. Who tells you that those are the original emails? The people hacking them have surely an agenda of their own to push so we should not take everything from them as the whole and only truth.

Good point but I don't see anyone denying their validity yet.

I think he's referring to this thread about the hacked e-mails posted Friday.
