The committee was hearing from officials at the regulator about how television and radio broadcasters cover the topic of climate change.
“It may be necessary, so if somebody makes a claim about a Deputy or Senator on a radio or television programme then that Deputy or Senator naturally has a right of reply,” he said. “You ultimately end up with false equivalency, where views are presented which don’t represent the truth, or don’t represent anyone, or if they do represent someone, they represent somebody whose views are not actually factually correct,” he said.
Green Party TD Brian Leddin said the BAI’s policy of waiting for a complaint from the public to investigate media coverage was “not enough”.
Climate change is a natural process. Climate hysteria is a scam. ClimateScam
There is an alternative view, backed by actual 'real' data. This view is blocked, ignored, and branded 'climate denial' so that you don't have to engage with it.
Up is down & black is white. The 'alternative view' is simply that the 'view' being pushed is not based on any solid causation links founded in science & historic data. As soon as you remove the convenient window of the last 100 years 'correlation' the whole thing falls apart.
And yet again let's look at all the expert predictions that turned out to be wrong, thank God for them experts eh
Well I never knew that our broadcasting regulator was a climate change expert, he must be in the wrong job
There are vast amounts of alternative views to the man made climate change parable, a few seconds looking online and you will find thousands of scientists who disagree with the narrative you are expousing
John Gibbons will be pleased.
Believe in the consensus that people-made global warming is a true à présent threats. However, I don’t like the notion of there being a muzzle on other’s perspectives. In a properly functioning democratic society we persuade rather than quench dissenting voices.
Tricky! Balance is an established convention, relieving journalists of a responsibility to avoid spreading lies. Making climate change an exception is not on. There are many areas in which balance is lying. RTE’s decision on 5G broke new ground. See here:
What the Hell is this guy on about ?
Any word on the Ozone Layer
The “other side” only means to delay climate action—no need to waste bandwidth.
This won't age well
Well said.
This'll get the nutters upset.
In other news, the vx has NO side effects at all, Epstein did kill himself and Charlie H was in no way connected to the Ra.
Climate Nazis
ClimateChange™ or GlobalWarming® are not real it's all a elit fraud
