“A poll finds that one in four Americans are wrong about something”

The only accurate way to report that one out of four Americans are skeptical of global warming is to say, ‘A poll finds that one in four Americans are wrong about something.’

Brilliant! Spot on criticism of the false equivalency news media give to deniers of science. Most scientists across the globe agree that global warming is real and that it is at the very least influenced by human society. And still a majority believe the current warming rate is caused (not just influenced) by human society.

Oliver is turning out to be quite the firebrand now that he’s running his own show.
