Malloy is the one who doesn't know climate science.

Steven J. Milloy - SourceWatch
Steven J. Milloy was a columnist for Fox News and a paid advocate for Phillip Morris, ExxonMobil and other corporations.

His main claim to fame, however, was as the junk-science arbiter at the head of The Advancement of Sound Science Coalition (later Center) ( TASSC). This pseudo-association was established for the tobacco industry by APCO, which at that time was virtually Philip Morris's private public relations company.

Milloy ran TASSC's website Junkscience.com, which was dedicated to debunking what he alleged to be false claims regarding passive smoking, global warming, DDT, environmental radicalism and scare science among other topics. [2]

His other website, CSR Watch.com, was focused on attacking the corporate social responsibility movement. He also heads the Free Enterprise Action Fund, a mutual fund he runs as a partnership with tobacco science executive Thomas J. Borelli, who was listed as the secretary of the Advancement of Sound Science Center. Milloy also operated the Regulatory Impact Analysis Project Milloy had offices in Washington, but later shifted his organisations to operate from his home in Potomac, Maryland.

Milloy joined forces with Philip Morris USA Science executive Tom Borelli and with Bonner Cohen who ran the EPA Watch for Philip Morris.

Milloy became so famous in tobacco lobbying circles that he was made available to the media around the world through the Atlas Group network of Libertarian think-tanks under contracts to the tobacco industry. [1]
