Analysis: ‘Every time there is a big storm, someone with an authoritative sounding title makes a bogus claim. The press corpse picks up on it, and it becomes sacred legend. No amount of scientific rebuke can undo the legend’
Some recent examples:
- Sandy – the biggest, baddest hurricane ever
- Colorado floods were a 1,000 year storm
- Philippines typhoon had the highest wind speeds at landfall
Not to mention: 97% of scientists believe that global warming is going to kill us all
None of these claims are even remotely correct, but the dice are loaded by fraudsters in the academic community, government and the press corpse.
