CNN anchor Deb Feyrick started her interview with Bill Nye the Science Guy off with typical questions — is global warming causing snowstorm Nemo, that sort of thing.
“Talk about something else that’s falling from the sky and that is an asteroid. What’s coming our way? Is this an effect of, perhaps, of global warming or is this just some meteoric occasion?”
The asteroid has been around for billions of years. It will miss earth by over 17,000 miles.
Even Chicken Little knows better than to ask such a stupid question.
There are no Stupid Questions!
Only reporters asking questions that are stupid!
“Does global warming make my asteroid look big?”
The purpose of mind-numbing idiocy is just that, numb minds.
Oy, with all this heat and humidity my asteroids are killing me!
Oh, Stick It In Your Asteroid!
Record-breaking heat waves: global warming!
Record cold and snowfall: global warming!
Global warming causes parching droughts, and also torrential rainfall and devastating floods.
Global warming causes the number and intensity of Atlantic hurricanes to skyrocket, and also to plummet.
Global wamring causes average global temperatures to increase inexorably, straight up, like the handle of a hockey stick… except when global warming decides to take a break for a few years and cause no discernible warming at all for a decade and a half.
It’s not really the CNN anchor’s fault that she thought global warming might summon asteroids, since she and the rest of the chattering classes have been indoctrinated for years now that global warming can cause literally every type of (often contradictory) natural phenomenon. There is a word for a “scientific theory” that is unfalsifiable because it can be contorted to fit with every conceivable outcome. That word is “nonsense”.
Global warming is also a floor wax and a dessert topping.
The earth actually was flat back in the day. Then global warming occurred and warped the earth into a ball.
Chicken Little can’t be trained to kill himself, so Chicken can’t be a liberal.
Well, for my money, there will not be a more stupid question asked for the remainder of this millennium.
The question is way beyond stupid. I can’t imagine how someone that dense can even hold a job, but I suppose if you can train a dog, you can train a journalist.
