CNN to feature teen climate activist Greta Thunberg in coronavirus town hall

CNN announced Wednesday it will feature teenage climate activist Greta Thunberg in its next "Coronavirus: Facts and Fears" town hall program set for Thursday night on the cable channel.

The town hall, hosted by "AC 360" anchor Anderson Cooper and CNN chief medical correspondent Dr. Sanjay Gupta, will also include former acting Centers for Disease Control and Prevention Director Richard Besser and former Health and Human Services Secretary Kathleen Sebelius. Both officials served in the Obama administration.

The town hall on Thursday night comes one week after the network welcomed filmmaker Spike Lee as well as former Vice President Al Gore to discuss COVID-19.

Thunberg has become an outspoken figure, drawing considerable media attention since leading school strikes in her home country of Sweden in 2018.

Thunberg was awarded Time's Person of the Year award while also being nominated for a Nobel Peace Prize in 2019.

Thunberg said earlier this year that she had recovered from what she believed were mild coronavirus symptoms.

I believe climate alarmists are feeling ignored and they need to regain the spotlight.

... why?

the only reason you have her on is because this is a manufactured crisis to usher in the new socialist utopia.

A 16-year old is expert on climate change and now the ChiCom Flu. She became an expert by skipping school and protesting. What an accomplished and educated individual! I believe everything she says because she appears on CNN, the most trusted source in the news business.

Are people really that stupid?

What a farce, an absolute joke. This girl is not an expert on ANYTHING, and even to say that she is NOT an expert is too give her too much credit and too much attention. Her presence completely trivializes the event, and shows it for what it is: media propaganda, the advancement of a political agenda, NOT science.

This is just part of the Democrats plan to pivot from “we have to listen to the scientists” that they have been pounding related to the Coronavirus to “we have to listen to the scientists” for climate change.
