A climate change activist and a former Fox News reporter are teaming up on a website designed to combat “disinformation” spread by right-leaning media, focusing especially on climate change.
The author and blogger Joe Romm and ex-Fox News politics reporter Carl Cameron launched FrontPageLive.com last week, a news aggregation website that the duo call “the go-to liberal antidote” to the conservative aggregation site, the Drudge Report.
Romm and Cameron’s project does not specifically focus on climate change. But the issue dominates the website, with a special section marked by the hashtag #ClimateCrisis dedicated to links to stories focused on it.
“Climate change is the clearest instance where President Trump and the right-wing disinformation machine promote the opposite of science,” said Romm, a physicist trained at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology who served in the Clinton administration’s Energy Department. “History will judge it more harshly than anything else.”
The Washington Examiner recently conducted a joint interview with Romm, known for his climate change blogging at ThinkProgress, and Cameron, who covered politics for Fox News over two decades before quitting after the 2016 presidential campaign.
Romm is the brainchild behind FrontPageLive and its editor-in-chief, but Cameron identifies with its mission to communicate what they hold to be accurate information about climate change.
Never cared for campaign carl anyway.
Cameron is the guy who spread disinformation about Sarah Palin after the 2008 Election.
Does the world really need the 1,348th attempt to be the “leftist Drudge Report”, especially now that the original Drudge report is pretty much the leftist Drudge Report?
LOL! After further contemplation of the post, how tone deaf are these two? Drudge the ‘go to’ conservative aggregator site and their site is the ‘go to liberal anti-dote’? Bwahahahahahahaha! Alrighty then. I most likely WON’T be bookmarking their site.
He’s trying to make himself important.
He’s an ass.
Out-lefting Drudge is heavy lifting, indeed. I can’t click on Drudge anymore.
If a Democrat was president right now you’d be hearing absolutely nothing about the climate.
Carl you are a wash up never has been,Go away and stop making a fool of yourself. You lied so much about the climate change hoax you convinced yourself. Now you can’t tell the truth from a lie.
Cameron, Camorata, Megyn, Major Garrett - all prove that FOX has given liberals plenty of air time. And that’s not counting the current group of liberals who many like me pray will leave FOX to join another loser initiative.
Cons never give up on the con. They will keep trying to make this the scam of the century, too much loot at stake to ever let it go . I wish they would use RICO to procecute them all.
Carl Cameron: a ‘reporter’ who covered Hillary Clinton for months and never once reported that she was traveling in an ambulance - that is, when she could actually get on the campaign trail. Yes, a real champion of fact.
Always thought “Campaign Carl” Cameron was a douch%bag.
I looked thru the site last week as a possible news source, didn’t take long to discard it ... left sided.
especially now that the original Drudge report is pretty much the leftist Drudge Report?
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Pretty much nailed it.
(anything negative about her).
He always seemed a little light in the loafers.
He’s gone from Campaign Carl to Commie Carl.
“Always thought “Campaign Carl” Cameron was a douch%bag.”
Was? He still is, unless he died.
