Manbearpig will not be denied. I'm super, super serial.
First, the BBC publishes a story about global temperatures not rising since 1998, causing some to question the the global warming aspect of climate change. See that here.
Next, an activist writes the article's author, Roger Harrabin, saying, in an hour and sixteen-minute exchange of emails, among other things:
"Your word "debate." This is not an issue of "debate." This is an issue of emerging truth. I don't think you should worry about whether people feel they are countering some kind of conspiracy, or suspicious that the full extent of the truth is being withheld from them.

Every day more information is added to the stack showing the desperate plight of the planet.
It would be better if you did not quote the skeptics. Their voice is heard everywhere, on every channel. They are deliberately obstructing the emergence of the truth.
I would ask : Please reserve the main BBC Online channel for emerging truth."
Read the exchange here.
Then the story changes.
Old headline: "Global temperatures 'to decrease'"
New headline: "Global warming 'dips this year'"
The Spectator also has a story on the evolving story.
And, because it has been a while, you can watch the entire Manbearpig episode of South Park here (language warning).
Thanks, Hot Air and Ace of Spades.
