One reason the media would want to keep the lid on this is that there's a gazillion out-of-work lumberjacks (and some severely depressed regional economies) across the west due to decades of these junk science frauds. A million or so displaced and extremely irate Americans might have a few cross words for them.

The fact that so many little people have lost jobs, homes, or even their families, is insignificant to these statist pukes. It would do them good to spend a few hours explaining to some of those affected (preferably in a closed room) just how their fraudulent actions are for the common good.

Yea, well millions of lumbermen, millmen, truckers and townspeople have lost their jobs and lumber has gotten expensive nationwide, but look on the positive side. Losts of rich, liberal, urban professionals have been able to buy vacation homes and more acreage now that rural economies and cultures have collapsed. Men can now get jobs cleaning rooms and serving sushi.
