| | SEPP News Release: TV METEOROLOGISTS PUBLICLY ENDORSE ANTI-CLIMATE TREATY "LEIPZIG DECLARATION"; (Site not responding. Last check: ) |
 | | In a statement read at the October 30th press briefing, which was broadcast regionally and reported by the Associated Press, the meteorologists said, "we feel the need to bring to the public's attention the full spectrum of data that we work with on a daily, monthly, and yearly basis. |
 | | A group of Ohio TV meteorologists contacted The Science & Environmental Policy Project in early October, shortly after the Administration hosted an invited gathering of 100 television meteorologists at the White House and appealed to them to promote global warming to their broadcast audiences. |
 | | Since the White House had broken ground by presenting its political agenda to the TV meteorologists, and since some weathercasters reported being pressured by their news directors to attend, the Ohio group felt a need to make an overt statement to avoid any public misperceptions about their scientific views. |
