From The Oregonian:
Why 'climate change' will not be on our 2015 editorial agenda: Editorial
We asked readers last month to help us choose the six or seven topics that will constitute our 2015 editorial agenda. Readers responded with scores of online comments and dozens of emails and letters to the editor, many of which urged us to focus on climate change, either as a stand-alone agenda item or a core component of an item focusing on environmental issues. These readers will be disappointed when our agenda appears next month.
This omission probably won't surprise many people, as we rarely write about climate change. Still, those who took the trouble to respond to our request for suggestions are owed an explanation. So here goes.
It is well worth remembering that the percentage of the US Population concerned enough about Global Warming to list it as one of their top 20 issues is less than two percent. Climate Change is an agenda-driven ideology and not a scientific fact. Kudos to The Orgonian to recognize this and to agree not to fan the flames.
