As previously mentioned, FAIR is a national progressive media watchdog group, challenging corporate media bias, spin and misinformation. It’s best known for its weekly radio program “Counterspin,” syndicated across 160 stations.
This week’s broadcast, “Richard Wiles & Matthew Cunningham-Cook on Climate Disruption Filtered Through Corporate Media,” explores how corporate media issues little honest coverage on the decades-long disinformation campaign that Big Oil is using to cover up what it knows about the climate change catastrophe and its efforts to continue the consumption of fossil fuels indefinitely.
At the same time the industry is pledging to make progress in decarbonizing our transportation sector, it’s increasing drilling in the Permian Basin by a factor of ten, while actively slowing the development of wind energy.
My favorite line from the show: “Right behind hydrocarbons, the second main product of the oil companies is lies.”

The representative’s district is in the rural farming region in Central California, but still, aligning oneself with Trump makes no more sense than cozying up to skin cancer.
73%? Why not 95%? 125%?
