So, is the mainstream media really left-wing, or even liberal, as those
on the right love to claim?

Tt should be noted that the real world tends to have a liberal bias — at
least what Ted Cruz considers a liberal bias. Take climate change, for
example. The fact that the climate is warming because of human activity
is a completely uncontroversial notion; it is happening, and the vast
majority of scientists agree that it will be catastrophic for humanity
if nothing is done very soon. That the mainstream media does not contest
the issue of climate change, or claim that it is some giant left-wing
conspiracy, does not prove it is liberal, but that it is operating in
reality. Cruz does not operate in reality, and believes climate change
(i.e. science) is a “religion.” But just because Cruz believes this, or
his deranged father, Rafael, believes that evolution is a communist lie,
does not mean that evolutionary biologists are communists or that
climate scientists are religious fanatics — it means that Rafael Cruz
and his son are delusional.

Yup.




How and from what sources has the "real world" been convinced that
climate change is a result of human activity? Who has declared that
human activity being the cause is an "uncontroversial notion"?

Why, of course. Liberals and the liberal media.


$Al Gore$


Al Gore is just one of the many who has found a way to monetize this
fear with the "cap and trade" scam. His company is selling the snake
oil called carbon credits. That is basically brokering 3d world
dictators selling trees they don't own and can't really protect, to
gullible people in the 1st world to make them feel better about their
energy use. It has no effect except to raise prices.
