Selection Bias Meets Media Bias Jonah Goldberg The Corner From a reader: <<< The AP just posted an article purporting to demonstrate that the science behind "An Inconvenient Truth" is spot on. The title is "Scientists OK Gore's movie for accuracy." The lead sentence gives it away from the get go" <<< "The nation's top climate scientists are giving "An Inconvenient Truth," Al Gore's documentary on global warming, five stars for accuracy." >>> However, if you read past this shilling for Gore, you find that, of the 100 "top" scientists contacted for the article, most had not seen the movie or read the book its based on. Of those who had, they seemed to agree that Gore had his science right. What was never discussed would be that, given the partisian nature of the movie, those who saw it were most likely already in Gore's camp on this issue. Just my two cents. Best of luck on the upcoming book and best to your family. Keep up the good work. >>> corner.nationalreview.com washingtonpost.com
