"Sky News (whose bread and butter is "crazy non-factual opinion")"
Sooooo …. in that case, you should easily be able to provide examples of this supposed Sky News "crazy non-factual opinion" from what you claim is the vast array available.
Lets' see some examples then …. waiting …
@Gekov: All ya have to do is look at some of Murdoch Media’s “stars” and the words defamation and racial vilification. Start with Andrew Bolt. It won’t take long to find the evidence.
@try2bhelpful: "It won’t take long to find the evidence."
I need guidance coz I don't see any "crazy non-factual opinion" when I look thru any Murdoch site.
Just one example of "crazy non-factual opinion" that you're aware of will do for starters …
@Gekov: You would if you actually bothered to look. Clearly, you know how to use Google - you're just super-selective and insulated regarding what you search for.
And don't worry, this isn't a 10+ year old example of utter rubbish), like what you've been posting throughout this thread.
Enjoy the read! if you in fact even bother to do so
@Gekov: Even you can Google “Andrew Bolt” and “defamation and racial vilification”. There are, at least, three cases he lost.
Then again maybe you can’t actually comprehend something unless it is bat shit crazy.
So I will let other people Google and they can make up their own minds. There is no way I can change yours. You are too far down the rabbit hole.
Whilst they are at it they can Google Sky News and fact checking. They will find the bits that negate your “arguments” on climate change.
@KangaDrew: Just one example of Sky News "crazy non-factual opinion"
FROM THE TOP OF YOUR HEAD, with possibly a link, would be nice, instead of asking me to wade thru mostly irrelevant links, baby.… waiting, but not holding my breath …
FROM THE TOP OF YOUR HEAD, with possibly a link, would be nice
I just provided you with two links 🤦🏻♂️🤦🏻♂️🤦🏻♂️🤦🏻♂️
@KangaDrew: "I just provided you with two links"
But can't think of one from the top of your head eh?
Can't be too many there …
@KangaDrew: OK,
if that's too hard,
how about providing a link and then summarising what you see as the "crazy non-factual opinion" there?
@try2bhelpful: "So I will let other people Google and they can make up their own mind"
IOW
You can't think of a single "crazy non-factual opinion" from the top of your head then?Can't be too many of those then.
@try2bhelpful: "They will find the bits that negate your “arguments” on climate change"
Try negating this then …
PROOF THAT CO2 IS NOT THE TEMPERATURE CONTROL KNOB!
To the consternation of global warming proponents, the Late Ordovician Period was also an ICE AGE while at the same time
*** CO2 concentrations then were nearly 12 times higher than today— 4400 ppm.
According to greenhouse theory, Earth should have been exceedingly hot.
Instead, global temperatures were no warmer than today. ***Clearly, other factors besides atmospheric carbon influence earth temperatures and global warming.

Truth and Science: A Nobel Laureate’s Advice to Students
… one of the worst sources of dangerous scientific misinformation the public has been fed is from the IPCC.
He has called the IPCC’s misinformation “a dangerous corruption of science” and “
a massive shock-journalistic pseudoscience.” Dr. Clauser asserts climate change is “not a crisis.”Meanwhile, mainstream news continues to tell us the IPCC has nailed the science and that they should be trusted.
We should take it on FAITH that carbon dioxide has caused an existential climate change crisis, that CO2 is responsible for an unnatural and abnormal warming period, that all extreme weather events are increasing due to CO2, that CO2 is causing sea level rises that will drown us and that the ocean reefs are dying. It further asks us to believe that the transition to a carbon dioxide-free economy will be affordable, feasible and quick — even in impoverished nations.
These myths are presented as truth by the non-scientific techno-cons.https://wattsupwiththat.com/2023/10/04/truth-and-science-a-n…

LITTLE ICE AGE-EXTREME WEATHER ON STEROIDS!
”throughout Europe, years 1560+ were cooler & stormier, late wine harvests, much stronger winds, Storm activity up 85%, severe storms rose400%”Edward Bryant, in the book, “Natural Hazards”, gives us a rundown of some of the biggest storms:-
Four storms along the Dutch and German coasts in the 13thC killed at least 100,000 each. The worst is estimated to have killed 300,000.
North Sea storms in 1099, 1421 and 1446 also killed 100,000 each in England and the Netherlands.
By far the worst storm was the All Saints Day flood of 1570, when 400,000 people were killed throughout Western Europe.
The Great Storm of 1703 sank virtually all ships in the English Channel, with the loss of 8000 to 10000 lives.
Other storms with similar death tolls occurred in 1634, 1671, 1682, 1686, 1694 and 1717.
Much of the coastline of northern Europe owes its origin to this period of storms. For instance, storms reduced the size of the island of Heligoland from 60km to 1km.
The Great Drowning Disaster of 1362 eroded 15km landward of the Danish coast, destroying over 60 parishes.
The Lucia storm of 1287 carved out the Zuider Zee.https://notalotofpeopleknowthat.wordpress.com/2014/02/06/sto…

How about you find some 2023 articles that back up every single one of those decades old links you've posted and seem to love so much? And while you're at it, make sure they are from reputable sources that can be fact checked.

180-220ppm correlates to glacial periods. 260-280 has produced relatively stable temperate climate. 400+ can lead to runaway greenhouse and violent weather patterns.

Sooooo … how do you explain the Mediæval & Roman Warm Periods, warmer or as warm as the present, with CO2 at 280ppm or less?
FYI: CO2 IS NOT THE TEMPERATURE CONTROL KNOB!
Climate was hotter in Roman, Mediæval times than now.
A large team of scientists making a comprehensive study of data from tree rings say that in fact global temperatures have been on a falling trend for the past 2,000 years and they have often been noticeably higher than they are today - despite the absence of any significant amounts of human-released carbon dioxide in the atmosphere back then.
"We found that previous estimates of historical temperatures during the Roman era and the Middle Ages were too low," says Professor-Doktor Jan Esper of the Johannes Gutenberg-Universität Mainz, one of the scientists leading the study. "Such findings are also significant with regard to climate policy."

World Presently In An Era Of Unusually Low Weather Disasters
This holds for the weather phenomena that have historically caused the most damage: tropical cyclones, floods, tornadoes and drought. Given how weather events have become politicized in debates over climate change, some find this hard to believe. Fortunately, government and IPCC (Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change) analyses allow such claims to be adjudicated based on science, and not politics.
https://riskfrontiers.com/weather-related-natural-disasters-…FYI: CO2 IS NOT THE TEMPERATURE CONTROL KNOB!
You can dig up obscure, dubious and dated sources that attempt to refute the evidence (a medical journal from 1888 claiming knowledge of weather in 637 - really??) but current world events and the vast majority of experts in the field disagree with you.

The warmists have been lying since the very beginning, circa 1970. Up to the end of 2020, they have made 48 scary failed climate predictions that have fully expired – at 50:50 odds, the probability of that happening is 1 in ~281 trillion – no rational person or group could be this wrong, this obtuse, for this long – they know they are lying – they’ve known all along.

48 scary failed climate predictions that have fully expired – at 50:50 odds, the probability of that happening is 1 in ~281 trillion
It's easy to cherry-pick and aggregate poor predictions. The general consensus this century is that human induced CO2 increases are likely to heat the global atmosphere 1.5-2 degrees in the first half of this century. This has pretty much already come to pass. We were just touching on +1.5 in 2023. It's not linear, obviously, but the trend is clearly upwards.

LETTER FROM A READER OF THE ARTICLE:
Geoff Sherrington
January 22, 2022 at 9:33 am
Some of us have done our own studies, collecting more information on sites than BoM seem to know about. Like, I have spent time with Dr Bill Johnston spending hours searching through historic paper records held at airports and BoM offices Slow, patient work, but revealing again original, unadjusted data when you get lucky.
Peter, in the majority of cases where these rediscovered facts are blended into existing data, the result is that overall, there has been less warming than the BoM claim. Not by a little bit, but by a lot. FWIW, my overall impression is that about 0.4ºC of Australian warming 1910 to 2020 is the maximum claimable by using hard science, not the 0.8-1 ºC that BoM estimate.
Now 0.4 ºC for a Century is not an existential threat. But it is the maximum we can find using hard science that can be replicated. Houston, we have a problem, Geoff S
https://joannenova.com.au/2022/01/bom-cools-history-and-warm…The Shocking Climate Graph @climateofgavin Doesn’t Want You To See
They’ve artificially cooled the past prior to 1960 (about the time Mauna Loa CO2 measurements started) and artificially warmed 1960 to the present.The result? A steeper warming trend (adding 0.24°C) than what actually exists in the unadjusted data.
It is proof of man-made climate change – created by adjusting the temperature data to fit a premise – that man-made CO2 released into the atmosphere is driving temperature.
https://wattsupwiththat.com/2021/02/03/the-shocking-climate-…By the way, what makes you so trusting of these adjustments?

if you are curious you can Google news.com.au repeats old stories
I just remember seeing them publish stuff that was years old
Sky News is free to watch on recent model Samsung TVs through Samsung TV Plus.
it is also always suggested in youtube (for me) before other slightly more credible new sources like 7 news. The default page of Edge shows MSN is always presenting articles from sky news australia to millions of Aussie's home pages everyday. They have nailed it on effective advertising and really excelled at putting themselves out there and lots of people just fall for it. Sadly such news of anger and hate generate much more engagement as well than just boring news.
I'm not a 65 yo boomer yelling at clouds, so therefore no I do not watch Sky News.
I rarely watch news these days sky has the right bias.
Sbs and abc a left bias.
The others are tabloid instant ratings or fluff stories.
You just cant get unbias reporting these days i want both sides of the story.
Though to be honest as i rarely watch news these days the quality may have changed?
Do you think perhaps that they are complicit in telling you what to think about rather than what to think?
Nope I avoid it… I'm not the target demographic and don't get Outraged easily enough… I also consider myself to have a modicum of critical thinking capacity so it just doesn't hit the mark for me…
I filter all my news through ground news now… it’s really just an aggregator of all the news sites covering a particular story. It then gives you where on the left/center/right scale each source sits with a run down on each source’s factuality record and ownership information.
I really like how it also uses AI to give a summary of what parts the left are focusing on as opposed to which parts the right are.

add on their defense of their war criminal buddies, and their seemingly daily updates on the Higgins v Lehrman case, with no updates at all, just hoping to paint Higgins as a sl*t who wanted it (and it works, my family says this stuff constantly)

I used to watch Sky news Aus before it changed owners. When it was owned by the original owners I used to think it was great.
Then one day one of the hosts went from being this happy go lucky person seeing the good in both sides of politics (which in my opinion is how you should do politics) to ultra conservative. I'm sitting there going huh???? 2 weeks ago you agreed with the matter now all of a sudden you are 1000% against it? The reasoning they gave was something that had more holes then Swiss cheese.
My guess was the new owners where like "you aren't allowed to like non conservative ideas so if you like your job you need to do a 180 like right now or it's the door for you."Unless it changed since I last had it but I will happy watch Sky news UK.
The irony of you writing this, while aggressively supporting Sky News (whose bread and butter is "crazy non-factual opinion") is mind-boggling to say the least. But gven your hard-line 'Murdoch = life' stance, it's not surprising. Even cult members don't realise they're in a cult, so it's quite easy for the mindless masses to get caught up in Murdoch's propaganda machine due to limitations in critical thinking.
