- Fmr. Harvard Physicist Dr. Lubos Motl on ‘Merchants of Doubt’: ‘Morano is an incredibly good communicator…a very likable character’
Motl's review: 'A great star of the movie is Marc Morano who appears after 1:00:00 or so...Morano is an incredibly good communicator, a man who has learned a lot of facts relevant for the climate debate, and a very likable character, too. I am actually amazed that no one has told Ms Oreskes about the problems with the appearances. When an impartial viewer watches the movie, he or she is bound to end up liking Marc Morano – and hate the nasty evil bitch.'
'Morano reveals that he used to be a door-to-door salesman and knows how to sell things and ideas. He is proud about the publication of the climate alarmists' e-mails and contacts because it's right when those folks learn about the anger from the American public that hates them...Marc Morano says quite something about his career.'
- Warmist film ‘Merchants of Doubt’ — comes back as insidious propaganda to kids in schools
The film has bombed commercially, grossing a mere $US192,000 in March-April on the US cinema circuit. Not to worry, the executive producers have deep pockets. They’re eBay founder and chairman Pierre Omidyar (net worth $US9 billion) and eBay’s inaugural president Jeff Skoll ($US4.4b). Through their Participant Media offshoot, they’ve made dozens of activist films, including Inconvenient Truth (2005)...
The film’s liveliest interview is with the Washington Climate Depot’s irreverent skeptic Marc Morano, who even manages to get in a reference to “16 years without warming” and accuses the sainted James Hansen of “inspiring people to acts of eco-terrorism”. He adds, “I get death threats. I enjoy them. I email back!”

- Review: Merchants of Doubt: Morano is ‘fascinating’ & ‘runs a sketchy website called Climate Depot’
'The most fascinating. Marc Morano, a former Rush Limbaugh operative who runs a sketchy website called Climate Depot, is open about his tactics, which include ad hominem attacks are nd the willful reduction of scientific inquiry to politics. First, you work to challenge the veracity of the science, then you move to personally discredit the scientists.'
