(Note: Morano has never debated James Hansen on TV. The review incorrectly claims Morano and Hansen engaged in a TV debate.)

- NY Times Justin Gillis: ‘It is a lie to say that global warming poses no danger’
Gillis: 'Journalists care about the truth—that’s my only care in life, to find the truth. To act as if the evidence is half and half is to tell a lie. I refuse to perpetuate that lie.'
His own preference was to describe the “deniers” as “people who oppose climate science.”
Gillis acknowledged a tacit pact among print journalists to stop giving credence to climate skeptics. He called this an “enlightenment” that began ten or 15 years ago. American television, he noted, still lets a few skeptics onto the air; broadcasters have yet to come out of the Dark Ages.
Gillis responded: “99.9 percent of climate science is funded by the government.” That means, he explained, that each grant is disclosed by number to the public, making every transaction transparent and trustworthy.
Emily Southerd, campaign manager for the advocacy group Forecast the Facts shared that her organization is petitioning news stations to quit booking “deniers” like Marc Morano of ClimateDepot.com, one of the “merchants” shown in the film.

Review: Morano is ‘Evil Personified’: He is paid to ‘destroy the lives of hundreds of millions in the short term, & quite possibly by the end of the century, billions of human beings’
Daily Kos on 'Merchants of Doubt': 'Morano, who by any definition is a thug and character assassin, has had a lasting effect already on our ability to limit the effects of man-made climate change...Is it any wonder I labeled Morano "Evil" in my title? Trust me, it isn't hyperbole.'
'Twenty critical years wasted thanks to hacks and mercenaries like Marc Morano. Years that we could have turned the tide to limit our exorbitant emissions of greenhouse gases. Years that we will never recover. And Morano is still out there right now, working hard to delay action on climate change for another twenty years...his deceitful and unethical tactics to smear bigger fish in the climate science community'
