NY Times Uses Emotional Video of Dead Dolphin in Snide Fight Versus Climate Dissenters

New York Times media reporter Jim Rutenberg branches off into global warming alarmism (while still mocking conservatives) on the front of Monday's Business Day with an oddity about a freelance environmentalist going viral with emotional videos of dead dolphins on the beach in Naples, Fla. that she blames on global warming: “Filling a TV News Gap With Just an iPhone.” The online headline: “News Networks Fall Short on Climate Story as Dolphins Die on the Beach.” Note how the Times steals a base, equating climate to the dead dolphins as if there is a clear, proven linkage (there isn’t).

But Florida is run by a governor, Rick Scott, whose environmental officials had discouraged the use of the phrase “climate change.” And this part of the state is Trump country, not to mention a vacation enclave for conservative media stars like Sean Hannity and Neal Boortz, who doubt the scientific consensus on the human contributions to climate change.

WOW! Sadly the dolphin managed to write his/her last words before passing. But, the dolphin did NOT mention Rick Scott by name. Besides, Scott will soon be gone and a new Gov will take over. Guess there has never in the history of recorded time been an event where dolphins or whales have washed up on the beach by accident or in mass suicides to protest glow bull warming. The enviroweenies could learn a thing or two.

That’s it, dolphins now deserve the right to vote!

We’re killing them like vicious murderers all day, every day, and they have no say.

NOT FAIR, MKAY!

In fact, Dolphins should be able to vote twice in Broward County and Palm Beach.

Because no animal ever died before man-made global warming.

Dolphins didn't die before "global warming"? I mean, "climate change"?

How stupid are these climateers?

Maybe they can follow up with some picks of thousands of dead children in Africa who died from malaria because the environmentalists got DDT banned.

Florida panther wrapped porpoise steaks with some manatee bites. YUM! Actual ‘dolphin’ is pretty good.

Dolphin fishing tip:

The first one you catch tie it off and leave it in the water. It’ll keep the pod nearby so you can land the rest.

A friend of mine went to a fish store in Lansing, MI and asked for Tuna free Dolphin.

They laughed and said...’You mean dolphin free tuna.’

Buddy said...Nope I want Tuna free Dolphin, the kind that makes sure that no tuna is harmed.

They just had blank looks on their face as he walked out.

He can come up with crap like that and say it with a straight face.

He’s the same guy that asks blacks why they want to be called American Africans.
