Benny Peiser has received a correction from the Times of London after they gave the false impression that his group was in the pocket of ExxonMobil. Peiser writes:
The Times has now corrected the inaccurate claim about me in the online version of its story. But the damage to the GWPF has been done, and hardly anyone will notice the correction to the online version now that it is behind a paywall and the Times has lost 90% of its online viewers. All we can do is to set the record straight on our own website in the hope that interested observers will see through these smear tactics.
Of course, funding sources only become an issue for the MSM when it’s those who find fault with computer-generated climate projections that receive funds for doing precisely what they would be doing anyway. When it’s folks like Michael Mann collecting sacks of cash from taxpayers (in this case, stimulus money!) and far-left foundations, the Times doesn’t care so much.
