Gore Used Fictional Video to Illustrate ‘Inconvenient Truth’ By Noel Sheppard \| April 22, 2008 - 09:53 ET It goes without saying that climate realists around the world believe Nobel Laureate Al Gore used false information throughout his schlockumentary "An Inconvenient Truth" in order to generate global warming hysteria. On Friday, it was revealed by ABC News that one of the famous shots of supposed Antarctic ice shelves in the film was actually a computer-generated image from the 2004 science fiction blockbuster "The Day After Tomorrow." [audio available here] Adding delicious insult to injury, this was presented by one of ABC's foremost global warming alarmists Sam Champion during Friday's "20/20": (Voiceover) Al Gore's 2006 documentary, 'An Inconvenient Truth," makes the same point with actual video of ice shelves calving. Which shots have more impact? AL GORE (FORMER UNITED STATES VICE PRESIDENT) And if you were flying over it in a helicopter, you'd see it's 700 feet tall. They are so majestic. SAM CHAMPION (ABC NEWS) (Voiceover) Wait a minute, that shot looks just like the one in the opening credits of "The Day After Tomorrow." KAREN GOULEKAS (VISUAL EFFECTS SUPERVISOR) Yeah, that's, that's our shot. That's a fully computer generated shot. There's nothing real in there. SAM CHAMPION (ABC NEWS) (Voiceover) Audiences expect Hollywood to twist fact into fiction. But Gore's documentary does the opposite, using a fake shot to make a real point, that ice shelves are disappearing, and vanishing ice means global warming. newsbusters.org What a guy...you are such a dupe, Kenneth. :) Diz-
