PBS's Silly Science: Weather just Gets 'Worse and Worse Every Year'

Thursday’s PBS News Hour segment on “extreme weather events” turned out even more bluntly unscientific than the channel’s usual apocalyptic environmental “Tipping Point” fare, with reporter Ali Rogin’s “climate change” screed equating temporary weather patterns with dangerous climate change -- at least when the show and its climate guest cherry-pick the hottest spots on the map.

Never mind the extreme cold North America suffered in late January 2026, or Cuba’s first freeze on record in early February, events ignored by the News Hour earlier this year. Now it’s all about the heat dome, due to “fossil fuel pollution.”
