Right Wing Uses Erroneous CNN Report To Smear Gore
Right Wing Uses Erroneous CNN Report To Smear Gore
Last week, The Guardian reported that the Exxon-funded American Enterprise Institute was offering to pay global warming deniers to push back on the new IPCC climate change study.
This morning, CNN incorrectly reported that during an appearance in Spain, Al Gore had blamed the White House — not AEI — for offering to pay the scientists. The headline read: “Gore says Bush administration paying scientists to dispute global warming.” But hours later, the site issued a retraction saying Gore had “responded to a question” from a reporter “that incorrectly implied the Bush administration was making payments to scientists.” Gore was referring to AEI when he said, “They’re offering cash for so-called skeptics who will try to confuse people about what the science really says.”
CNN’s correction hasn’t stopped the right wing from recycling the false headline in order to smear Gore. A headline from today’s Drudge Report:
Following Drudge’s lead, Fox News’ John Gibson regurgitated the incorrect story. Gore “just won’t shut up about his climate change crusade,” Gibson said. “He’s now charging that scientists who doubt the global warming argument are being bribed by our government and others to betray science.”
Watch it:
Transcript:
Now, big weather. He just won’t shut up about his climate change crusade. Former Vice President and alpha-male environmentalist Al Gore spoke out at a global warming conference in Madrid. He’s now charging that scientists who doubt the global warming argument are being bribed by our government and others to betray science.

No problem here. Drudge readers encompass the 28%ers who can’t think for themselves anyhoo.

Heres a fickle finger of faith for yah Vince.
February 7th, 2007 at 6:51 pmYou mean the “Liberal Media” has mis-quoted Gore and the “Conservative Media” perpetuated the error, thereby turning it into a myth and a falsehood??? That never happens…
You would think people would wise up to the fact that there is no serious distinction between media outlets… They’re all opportunistic cheerleading hoo-ers.
February 7th, 2007 at 6:55 pmGore was most likely right. Regardless, he was misquoted. That’s why God invented courts, lawyers and judges. Sue thier FOXy asses for liebel and slander. At the very least, it’s PR for his film and keeps the issue in the spotlight.
February 7th, 2007 at 6:57 pmFunny thing, but the erroneous story is almost believable.
February 7th, 2007 at 6:57 pmWhat do you think of the prolific lying by Republicans, Vince? Are you down with that, dude? Is is okay for them to lie about everything all the time, just so long as they’re greasing towelheads, buddy?
February 7th, 2007 at 6:59 pmOh, and by the way, it just shows that they see Gore as a threat to their little criminal party in 2008.
February 7th, 2007 at 7:00 pmNow that I think about it, the erroneous story is completely believable. (Not that I’m saying it happened, not yet anyway)
February 7th, 2007 at 7:00 pmIt’s ironic that in thier selfish, clumsy way of attempting to lie, they are actually telling the truth. The funny thing is that it can’t come back to haunt Gore, because he never said it… THEY did.
February 7th, 2007 at 7:01 pmVince P.,
Which do you favor:
1. Massive bombing of Iran.
February 7th, 2007 at 7:01 pm2. Ground war in Iran.
3. Tactical nukes dropped on Iran.
4. All of the above.
Nice try, Gore and Clinton Apologist Central, but as CNN notes in its correction:
Gore did answer the question as posed by the Cuatro interviewer.
In other words, Gore answered a question relating to the Bush administration, not AEI. The Spanish interviewer asked him about the Bush administration paying scientists, and Gore answered it, “Yes, yes…”
I challenge Think Progress to post the entire transcript. Here’s the video, but the interviewer’s question gets drowned out by the translator.
February 7th, 2007 at 7:02 pmI will lobby very hard for Al Gore to receive the prestigious Nobel Peace Prize and Academy Award- on ONE condition. He MUST agree to run for the Presidency again in ‘08. Please, Al, RUN! Avenge yourself!!
February 7th, 2007 at 7:03 pmA dishonest conservative, who would have guessed???? I’m simply shocked!
February 7th, 2007 at 7:03 pmWhen is the legislature going to stop oil and defense contractors from controlling mainstream media? Enough is enough!
February 7th, 2007 at 7:03 pmI should note, though, that Drudge’s headline is misleading. Gore didn’t say that, but he certainly did respond in the affirmative when asked that question by an interviewer.
February 7th, 2007 at 7:05 pmThe American Media has “shit the bed.” Nothing useful or true or meaningful. Total waste of time. On to something else.
February 7th, 2007 at 7:06 pmIt’s not like the AEI and Bush are at all related, right? They are only the neocon architects of the Iraq war.
These think tanks are out of control. Someone in the MSM has to start shining some spotlights on these non-surface dwellers.
February 7th, 2007 at 7:07 pmSeixon – SO WHAT? – what’s the difference between dubbie and pals and AEI anyway? same intellectually bankrupt band of overprivileged brigands, and everyone knows it.
February 7th, 2007 at 7:09 pmand, do gore or clinton need apologists? (answer:not really) Dubbie is the one who needs lots and lots of apologists, and he’s SO fortunate to have Fox and Seixon bravely eating shit for him.
Gore and Clinton = ok guys, needing no apologies
Bush and Cheney = criminal c*cksuckers, needing to hijack the entire US government to try to bury their crimes.
the end.
February 7th, 2007 at 7:13 pmb-bye
This IS the very reason I am done with cnn and all of TV. TV news is nothing but a waste of time – the bias is too obvious.
February 7th, 2007 at 7:14 pmby tom baker,
So you don’t see the difference between alleging that the US government is paying off scientists instead of noting a confirmed fact that AEI was looking to do that? It would be like claiming that Al Gore did something that Think Progress did.
February 7th, 2007 at 7:15 pmThe way I see it, this story could be a good thing. It won’t be terribly difficult to refute and the more the Right Wing Media squawks about it, the more attention it gets. Then anyone who is interested in the facts will investigate and discover that AEI actually IS offering cash for scientists whose opinions will support their preferred view.
Okay, so that may be a total of ten, fifteen people in America, tops, who will investigate, but still, it’s something…

Sounds more like one of those loonie lack of reasoning threads on your blog!
February 7th, 2007 at 7:23 pmYeah, Valiant Venus, it would have been soooooo horrible for Gore to have assumed the office as he deserved in 2001. Hundreds of thousands would still be alive. The Twin Towers would probably still be standing. Our economy would be sound and healthy. The value of the dollar would not be tanking. And, our standing in the world would be strong. Something tells me that the majority of Americans would still vote for Gore, just like they did in 2000, and that since Florida is going to paper ballots and Ohio is now blue, you couldn’t steal it from Gore this time.
February 7th, 2007 at 7:23 pmthe whores at fox have no boundaries… no scruples…
just LIES… make stuff up and LIE about that… why? …
…something very big is goin’ down…

Can we lobby to have you hospitalized for treatment of Anorexia and the related social and mental disorders, on the condition that promise never again to blog? Avenge your self, and eat a tic-tac!
February 7th, 2007 at 7:25 pmSexion you just killed this thread by posting the interview video.
February 7th, 2007 at 7:27 pmAnd yes, if Gore were president, the Twin Towers WOULD still be standing. I assume that a President Gore would have pushed through the suggestions of his own Gore Commission. Those suggestions included armed air marshals, reinforced cockpit doors and more strict check in standards at airports. Any one of those things could have easily stopped the entire attack.
February 7th, 2007 at 7:27 pmSeixon, thanks for the link and the comments. I hadn’t seen the video online.
As for our post, it seems that you agree the Drudge headline was misleading (comment 20), and therefore Gibson was also misleading.
February 7th, 2007 at 7:27 pmSo you don’t see the difference between alleging that the US government is paying off scientists instead of noting a confirmed fact that AEI was looking to do that? It would be like claiming that Al Gore did something that Think Progress did.
Comment by Seixon
What an absolutely horrible analogy that is… Do you have any idea how many members of AEI have had an active role in our government? Do you have any idea how many Think Progress members have an active role with anything Gore is doing? (hint: relatively NONE if ANY)
Seriously, try to keep things in scale.
February 7th, 2007 at 7:28 pmNational strike is the only answer. Congress is not standing up for the people – because Cheney has the goods on them from all that illegal spying? We must show corporate America who is the boss before it is too late.
February 7th, 2007 at 7:34 pmbut the interviewer’s question gets drowned out by the translator.
-Seixon
So then you don’t know what the question was?
Was it translated correctly?
February 7th, 2007 at 7:36 pmBluedog49 what still haunts me about 9/11 is the fact Bush came out and said it was another Pearl Harbor the words used in PNAC, page 51 where the authors stated America would need anouther Pearl Harbor.
February 7th, 2007 at 7:40 pmLee, that’s one of the many things which bother me about it as well. I’m not a conspiracy theorist, but unless they can explain what should be easiest to explain – the lack of NORAD response and the strange pattern of option calls — they shouldn’t expect people to take anything at face value.
February 7th, 2007 at 7:44 pmThe smear campaign won’t work. I don’t care what agency’s name is attached to global warming deniers. I still blame Bush.
February 7th, 2007 at 7:47 pmFaiz,
Yes, FOX News’ angle on it is misleading, just as the Drudge headline is. However, your post is also misleading in claiming:
This is false, Gore was referring to the Bush administration in answering this because that’s what the interviewer asked.
Example:
Q: Did the CIA knock down the Twin Towers?
A: Yes, yes, they knocked down the Twin Towers.
You can’t seriously suggest that the person answering this question was referring to someone other than the CIA, and similarly, Gore was not referring to AEI.
Although as I pointed out, it would be misleading to say that Gore made the claim, as he was answering to the claim made by the reporter.
Drudge and FOX should have said: “Gore agrees that Bush administration is paying scientists to speak out against global warming”
That would have been accurate.
February 7th, 2007 at 7:49 pmCNN = Bush’s New Propaganda Tool
February 7th, 2007 at 7:51 pmThe erroneous story may have been intentionally created because it’s certainly “plausible” these days. Just like typical propaganda which sometimes blows up in the face of the propagandist, however, it’s that first snippet which the public forever remembers – and the ones who don’t watch on subsequent programs for a correction, will be believe it.
So this may be one thing which the administration did not do and are being blamed for doing, eh? One thing in a mountain of lies and bull—- – perhaps if they take umbrage with this one factual misstep, then the people need to begin amassing the almost incomprehensible number of criminal activities which they HAVE engaged in and then lied about??
February 7th, 2007 at 7:55 pmJohn Gibson is a CUA (Completely Useless American)!!!
February 7th, 2007 at 7:56 pmBluedog: You bet your life they’d still be standing. I’d love to see Al Gore return and wipe this GOP off the map but I think he’s evolved much too far spiritually to reimmerse himself in the black, toxic evil gunk of this administration – even if only to attempt to clean it up following the worst president ever in the history of this country.
Al Gore has international credibility – something which this Prez will NEVER attain. He doesn’t even have national credibilty, for pity sakes!
In any case, hindsight is always 20/20 and if Al Gore hadn’t had the presidency outright “stolen from him by a band of criminals and thugs” who will still be prosecuted someday for their actions, one can only imagine how much better off this country and our democracy would be right now.
February 7th, 2007 at 7:59 pmMaybe BushCo did Al a favor by keeping him from the Presidency. Maybe Al is more effective on his current path.
February 7th, 2007 at 8:04 pmFirst Obama, then Pelosi. These reich-wingers are so desparate to sling mud they will concoct stories that no one in his or her right mind would believe.
February 7th, 2007 at 9:07 pmstep right up!
it’s ALL “Swift Boat”, ALL the time, now!
say anyting you like, say it with a fire in your belly!
then, the host of the show will look amazed and gasp “wow! I wonder what they’ll say to THAT???” spurious claims can be made with brass bands. why correct these claims when they will provide such power keeping that right-wing anger bellows pumping?
it looks like this is normal now.

February 7th, 2007 at 9:29 pmWow, let’s not even pretend to have journalistic integrity…
February 7th, 2007 at 9:33 pm#16: I watched the video multiple times, but I couldn’t hear the part where Gore makes his statement about the American Enterprise Institute (or–if you believe Drudge–the Bush administration). I couldn’t hear the interviewer’s question or Gore’s reply. So I’m not sure what you think the video proves.
I do agree, though, that it would be very helpful if Think Progress posted the entire transcript, to provide context.
February 7th, 2007 at 10:31 pmBe careful Al, you are dealing with the largest drug and oil cartel in the world. And Bushco did try to shoot you out of the sky over Chicago once. Remember?
Be safe and Godspeed Al Gore.

February 8th, 2007 at 12:25 amThis is the consequence of having no consequences (or one of them)
February 8th, 2007 at 12:58 amAs a matter of fact I saw ‘An inconvenient truth’. Now for me that was some sort of ‘deja vu all over again’. As early as in 1983 there was a study by a group of European scientists that had started sediment core drills in the North Atlantic ocean floor. The first results showed some interesting pattern. There were tiny snails to be found in the sediment layers. The amazing thing was a thermal dependence of the growth direction of the snail house. With lower water temperatures the majority of snails houses would grow clockwise. Higher water temperatures would cause the snails to grow houses that spiral counter clockwise.
February 8th, 2007 at 3:15 amTo make a million year long story short, the amount of snails with counter clockwise houses led to the realization that there was a large amount of warmer fresh water into the Atlantic ocean just before the last ice age, around 10,000 years ago. The result of the fresh water infusion into the Atlantic Ocean was a complete halt of the Thermohaline current, or Great Ocean Conveyor. Al Gore’s film focused partially on the fact that the meltdown of the arctic, antarctic and Greenland ice masses would cause the same halt of the important deep ocean current.
How stupid does somebody have to be, to deny the factual relationship between a ‘coincidental’ and a ‘man made’ interruption of the for mentioned deep sea current with known consequences?
Those right wing people are so dumb that there is no hope or cure. It will be insufficient to tell them in a few years “I told You so”.
To smear Al Gore is the dumbest thing a human can come up with and fortunately the rest of the world has already acknowledged the ‘Inconvenient Truth’ of global warming.
It is only some dumb Americans who keep bad mouthing the only great guy this country has seen in decades. Al Gore is a hero and he deserves the Nobel price. The opinion of some idiotic right wing morons doesn’t change that. And finally let me make one more statement.
I realized that the fact that Al Gore did not become the ‘next president of the U.S.’ is rather a blessing. Every country has the government it deserves. Al Gore is more important in his role as a spokes person about the dire consequences of untreated global warming.
#49
February 8th, 2007 at 7:55 amYour insult to the late Ms. Ivins will not gain you any clout at TP. For that reason alone they shouldn’t listen to you.
Yeah, Drudge’s report might be outrageous if the government weren’t messing with science. A real investigation would prove that the Bush II administration is coercing scientists and paying them to distort information about global warming. Anyone got a problem with that? Not conservatives.
February 8th, 2007 at 9:48 amNext on Fox News: Bush never stops thinking about ways to harm America.
February 8th, 2007 at 11:00 ambetter an alpha male of environmentalism than of greed, eh?
February 8th, 2007 at 11:59 am#30
“Hundreds of thousands would still be alive. The Twin Towers would probably still be standing.”
If Gore was elected in 2000, 9/11 would have still happened. Saddam would still be in control of Iraq, the Taliban would still be running Afghanistan and al Qaeda would still be operating their terrorist camps.
“Our economy would be sound and healthy.”
The government doesn’t run the economy.
“The value of the dollar would not be tanking.”
And what would Gore have done to prevent this?
“And, our standing in the world would be strong.”
Yes we would still be licking the boots of Germany and France.
February 8th, 2007 at 1:34 pm#45
It would be worse.
February 8th, 2007 at 1:36 pmGore is a nut case a liar and a hypocrite. But those are his good qualities.
He own 3 homes one over 10,000 square feet another 4,000 (those take heating and cooling) and flies around in private jet telling us we have to make personal energy sacrifices.
ROTFL
I can’t imagine how the country would have fallen apart on 9/11 if this queen was in office.
February 8th, 2007 at 2:00 pmTracy, when in recent history did the US ever lick the boots of anyone? What are you talking about? And I kind of think that Government has something to say about the economy..some people even vote a particular way because of that! Walmart don’t set taxes. Again, what the hell are you talking about?
Happy Guy…if I owned 20 cars, would I produce 20 times more car exhaust gases than you? Do I have 40 legs?
Should I be condemned if I drive a few hundred miles to push my finger into a hole in a sinking oil tanker? What is the greater evil? I keep hearing the argument against people flying to meet to try to sort out the worlds pollution problems, and its bullsh*t. What’s the alternative? Sit on your fat Ar*e consuming while the world goes haywire? Or meet up NOW and try to put solutions in place to minimise the effects?
February 8th, 2007 at 3:46 pmAbout time right wingnut smear artists like Drudge and Gibson are given a taste of their own medicine…so far only Keith Olbermann of MSNBC has been calling these creeps out on their outrageous and unfounded LIES…the People of America should TAR AND FEATHER THESE CREEPS and TORPEDO THEIR SWIFT BOAT SO IT SINKS WITH ALL HANDS ABOARD AND DROWN THESE SEWER-RAT right wingnuts!!!!!
February 8th, 2007 at 4:25 pmTracy AND Happy Guy – what a treat…..idiots, bootlickers, and hysterical cowards. You’re days out from under the rock are over. Your “power elite” is all going to go to jail, and in a few short years, anyone voicing opinions like yours will be laughed at like a joke on the Simpsons. Congratulations on your incredible team effort in discrediting the Republican’t party for the next 50 years. Thank you.
February 8th, 2007 at 5:31 pmIf Gore really wants to help the environment, close the family Zinc strip mine on his property. He has damaged more nature and contributed more for the somewhat questionable made man global warming than most common people could do if they tried. (June 29, 2000, issue of the Wall Street Journal with pictures). He should put his money where his “Green†mouth is, but he will never give up his money nor his quest for power.
Gore missed his best chance to be president. Clinton wasn’t found guilty in his impeachment trial, so Gore didn’t get promoted.
February 8th, 2007 at 7:30 pmTed – did you come to help out the other jackbooters?? If so, please refer to post #68, and have a nice day.
February 8th, 2007 at 7:35 pm#66
“Tracy, when in recent history did the US ever lick the boots of anyone?”
Sorry, if Gore was elected.
“And I kind of think that Government has something to say about the economy..some people even vote a particular way because of that! Walmart don’t set taxes.”
The government doesn’t have control over the economy to the degree that I think you think it does.
“Again, what the hell are you talking about?”
The BS assertion was that if Gore was elected that the U.S. economy would be sound and healthy with no proof given to back it up.
February 8th, 2007 at 7:44 pm#68
The lot of Republicans that got ejected weren’t conservative and they deserved to get beat. If you think that the recent election was a vote for liberal ideals and a rejection of conservative ones…you are wacked.
February 8th, 2007 at 7:47 pm#69
How dare you bash the messenger! Remember it about what he says and promotes, not what he does.
February 8th, 2007 at 7:49 pmAl Gore’s tax records are public records. He claimed $20,000 in zinc mining royalties on his return there “Jackbooterâ€. Probably not enough money to heat and cool his three 4000 sq ft plus houses or maintenance and fuel for his private jet. I imagine he uses ethanol though. BYW you need to look up the term “jackbooterâ€. To help you it is a “Cruel and violently oppressive person†(i.e. Saddam Hussein RIP). I fail to see how words reach that level.
February 8th, 2007 at 8:27 pmHelp! Did I google to a High school blog? 68 & 70 makes me think i’m in the children’s section of political blogging. jackbooters? Maybe some Mid-East leaders, but I can say no american politician fits that term. Hitacritial, probably. Maybe I’m in the Mid-East children’s blog.
February 8th, 2007 at 8:34 pm#75 Bring something to the table. Let’s hear your thoughts before you bash the blog. But, no, you will just parrot Rushie, won’t you?
February 8th, 2007 at 9:27 pmHey Max, exactly how dangerous was Saddam to you?
February 8th, 2007 at 9:28 pmTo Bluedog49 and others, don’t you think Gore’s “time has come?” He was considered stiff and uninteresting before. Now with all of the real story coming out about Global Warming, we have a serious, experienced expert to help guide us through this (if there is still time). If the Dems and Independents can get together, Gore would provide the vision for not only correcting mistakes made by Bush, but for what we need to do now and in the future, and not only for America, but globally. What better way to regain our stature in the world?
February 9th, 2007 at 2:34 amTracy, I’ll take “wacked winner” over “”conservative” loser” any day o’the week. In fact, I think I’ll have that put on a t-shirt I can wear to the Impeachment watching party. Hope you come too.

The Democrats didn’t win because the American public rejected conservative values and wanted liberal ones. The Republican’s lost because they were too liberal…especially with spending and because the results of the Iraq invasion have not been what was hoped for. You and I both know that if the situation in Iraq wouldn’t have turned out better and not the way it has, i.e. the result of bad management, the Democrats wouldn’t have won back Congress. The bad results in Iraq is the issue what won them back power.

If the Democrats proceed with impeachment hearings then Pelosi’s word isn’t worth crap. Although about the only thing the Democrats like Waxman do is investigate….not much else.

February 9th, 2007 at 6:07 pmI’m new to blogging and I am not sure how to comment. I have a lot to say as a liberal democrat with a republican husband. My husband and I are in agreement politically for the 1st time in our 26 year marraige. The Democrats are going to loose the presidancy again in 08. If tha dem. party nominates Hillary (too many enimies), Obama (lack of experience…and his name), and Edwards (one of the back stabbing dems. involved with getting Dean out of the picture in 04). My republican friends and husband were ready to vote for Dean, but when Kerry got the nomination they voted for BUsh. I do believe that there are better candidates out there like Richardson (would get crossover votes), but my heart will always be with Al Gore or Howard Dean. The American people say they want honesty, but when they get it they turn it down. They allow the media to convince them that a person is not qualified to be President (Dean) and convince us some idiot is (ie. Bush and Kerry). And when it comes to the war in Iraq, the media convinced the public that if you were against invading Iraq, you were unpatriotic. The American people and stupid senate and congress went right along with Fox and the Bush administration’s propaganda. I’m not a really smart person, but I Knew it was wrong and would turn into another Vietnam. Why didn’t more of our leaders take a stand against this war before it was too late? I will never vote for anyone who gave BUsh the OK to invade Iraq and I don’t care if they are good democrats. I and my husband are looking for a 3rd party candidate if the dems don’t give us a worthwhile candidate. We both like Gov. Richardson, but no one talks about his run for the White HOuse. COME ON AL, OR HOWARD WE NEED YOU!
