The Weather Channel has slammed Breitbartfor using its reporting to argue that the earth is cooling, when in fact, it definitely is not.
Brietbart's use of an unrelated Weather Channel video to back up false claims that the earth is getting colder just didn't sit well with the weather reporting service, which rarely if ever sticks its nose in anything political. It delivered a scathing and informative video message on Tuesday.
The site didn't stop there. It also ran a story entitled "Note to Breitbart: Earth Is Not Cooling, Climate Change Is Real and Please Stop Using Our Video to Mislead Americans," alongside the video message.

"Global temperatures plunge. Icy silence from climate alarmists," read the headline. The story included what it called evidence of this fact, which turned out to be a report from Weather Channel meteorologist Kait Parker about La Niña temperatures.
But, as Parker explained in the video above, her report on La Niña didn't give any evidence that the earth is cooling.
"Problem is they used a completely unrelated video about La Niña, with my face in it, to attempt to back their point," she said. "Now what's worse is that the U.S. Committee on Space, Science and Technology actually tweeted it out."
The government committee charged with overseeing science did in fact tweet out the story.

It was a moment of misinformation that The Weather Channel simply couldn't ignore.
"Here's the thing, science doesn't care about your opinion," Parker said in the video. "Cherry-picking and changing the facts will not change the future, nor the fact -- note: fact, not opinion -- that the earth is warming."
Later in the video, Parker gave a breakdown of Breitbart's individual claims about climate and how they are false. She explained how both land temperatures and water temperatures have to be measured to gauge global climate trends, and showed NASA video depicting the rapid melting of massive ice glaciers.
"So next time you're thinking about publishing a cherry-picked article, try consulting a scientist first," she said. "And to all my scientists out there: Let's make the facts louder than the opinions."
