    Re Climate change.

    Isn't it amazing....

    The skies over some major cities have cleared of smog for the first time. Some young children have told their parent that the sky is actually blue not gray.

    This year was the first time in many years that Australia didn't have a major cyclone season in the local area.

    How much proof do proponents need that fossil fuel climate change is real?

    Now tell me that the global climate is not influenced by man-made energy consumption an I'll eat my hat....

    BBC - Media Bias/Fact Check

    Founded in 1922

    What source do you have that describes the BBC as very left wing?
    I don't need one, its my opinion that is shared by others, since the Brexit vote four years ago the BBC amongst others have tried to undermine, ridicule and generally deceive those that voted for independence. Since then we have had four years of this scaremongering.

    The BBC is a subscription service which you have to pay for but the government has recently considered decriminalizing none payment because of their piss poor service.
    When the UK Government attacks the BBC's funding because of their biased reporting is a website like mediabias even needed?

    CNN picks Greta Thunberg for ‘expert’ coronavirus panel at global townhall
    haha thats the kind of stupidity that the BBC aspire to be, I bet there's senior management angry that they didn't think of that first.

    It's generally because of unbiased reporting that government tries to mess with public broadcasting

    US coronavirus curve may be flattening, but estimated death toll keeps rising. What does this mean?

    The national curve finally appears to be flattening – for now. - See, they just can't report good news without throwing in that Fear-mongering, or the "estimates" that have been completely wrong up to this point. "What does this mean?" - It fuckin' means that the curve is flattening, but we're still going to try to scare you by telling you that a couple people "think the ESTIMATES will go up". They don't fucking know! All the models have been WAAAAAY off, and i don't think anyone thinks we can "Rely on them" anymore.

    a leading model, released projections this week that show a steady decline for daily deaths – falling to 100 or less by early August. The positive trends, however, come against another grim estimate released this week.
    See.....Great news!! 100 or less daily deaths by august!! BUT, don't get too excited, rather, let's make you panic as we contradict the good news with some "Grim ESTIMATES".

    What a joke!

    the reason for the rising numbers is: they are reporting ANY death as covid deaths. the states get more funding so do the hospitals.

    NHS England has reported that there have been another 207 coronavirus hospital deaths in England, taking the total to 24,159. It says the people who died were aged between 33 and 100 years old. All but six of the patients had underlying health conditions, it says.

    The figures are fucked up globally.

    Everybody already knows that it affects people with underlying health problems and the elderly more than people who are healthy.

    True, here is the same.

    True but totally unrelated in context of your post.
    A tree is known by its fruit, a man by his deeds. A good deed is never lost, he who sows courtesy, reaps friendship, and he who plants kindness gathers love.

    Blessed are they who can laugh at themselves, for they shall never cease to be amused.

    It means that Fox News is reducing its Coronavirus coverage which is daily bad news for President Trump. Fox News is trying hard to distract its viewers on a faux anti-Obama conspiracy theory while simultaneously character attacking Dr. Fauci's medically sound best practises that are no longer politically in line with the White House narrative.
