Media Spin: New York Times Blames 2009’s Record Cold on Natural Factors — But Blamed Record Warmth in 2000 on Man-Made Global Warming!
Climate Depot Editorial
The media and climate fear promoters appear to be in overdrive trying to spin recent global cooling and particularly the “year without a summer” in many parts of the U.S. [See: Earth’s ‘Fever’ Breaks!

The New York Times reports that the record cold of 2009 is due to natural variations and even warned skeptics of man-made global warming not to be “buoyed” by the brutal cold.
The New York Times’ remarkable front page article on July 31, 2009 titled “In New York, It’s the Summer That Isn’t” by reporter Sam Roberts detailed the record breaking cold summer in New York. The article warned “this could be the coolest summer on record” and “this will have been the coolest June and July since either 1903 or 1881.”
But the 2009 article explained “this summer’s unusually mild temperatures should not buoy global warming skeptics.”

Ok. Fair enough, “natural variations” caused a record cold breaking summer in 2009, according to the Times. But the question looms, how did the paper explain record warmth nearly a decade ago? Surely, if natural variations in climate can cause a record-breaking cold summer, then it would stand to reason that record breaking warmth would have a natural cause as well?
Not exactly. The Times effortlessly attributed record warmth back in 2000 to man-made global warming, noting the warm temperatures were “consistent” with model predictions. [Climate Depot Editor’s Note: At least NYT is light years ahead of the BBC, which in true “climate astrology” fashion, blamed “intense” deadly cold on global warming!

A March 11, 2000 New York Times article by reporter William K. Stevens entitled “U.S. Sets Another Record for Winter Warmth” had no hesitation in blaming record warmth on man-made global warming.
The article from 9 years ago noted: “Shorter and milder winters are consistent with a century-long global warming trend that mainstream scientists believe has been at …
