AOL Spams For Al Gore’s “Truth” Documentary

America Online is shamelessly shilling for Al Gore’s latest chicken little documentary, An Unsubstantiated Canard An Inconvenient Truth.

I just received this in the S&L letter box:

Former Vice President of the United States Al Gore, right, and American director Davis Guggenheim speak during a press conference for the film ‘An Inconvenient Truth,’ at the 59th International film festival in Cannes, southern France, on Saturday, May 20, 2006.

Hello,

My name is Mike, and I am with AOL Moviefone. I came across your blog, and thought I should send you this. I wanted to let you know about two features we have for the upcoming documentary, An Inconvenient Truth. Since this movie revolves around an Al Gore speech, and relates to environmental politics, I thought that this may appeal to your readers. The first feature is a trailer for the movie itself. Al Gore discusses the consequences of Global Warming. You can see that here:

We also have an exclusive interview with the producer and director of An Inconvenient Truth. They discuss working with Al Gore and the necessity of a documentary on Global Warming. You can see the trailer and interview here:

Feel free to link to either of these features in your blog. Let me know if you have any questions.

Regards,

Mike

Does AOL have a piece of Gore’s "documentary"? Or do they just want to promote his America-hating politics?

Of course we already know that AOL hates President Bush.

    al gore got this one just the opposite: Global warming boost to glaciers
    http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/uk_.....283278.stm
    Global warming could be causing some glaciers to grow, a new study claims.

    Researchers at Newcastle University looked at temperature trends in the western Himalaya over the past century.

    They found warmer winters and cooler summers, combined with more snow and rainfall, could be causing some mountain glaciers to increase in size.

    The findings are significant, because temperature and rain and snow trends in the area impact on water availability for more than 50 million Pakistanis.

    Researchers focussed on the Upper Indus Basin, which is the mainstay of the national economy of Pakistan and has 170,000 sq km of irrigated land - an area two-thirds the size of the UK.

    Dr Hayley Fowler, senior research associate at the university’s school of civil engineering and geosciences, said: “Very little research of this kind has been carried out in this region and yet the findings from our work have implications for the water supplies of around 50 million people in Pakistan.”

    Water resources

    Co-researcher David Archer added: “Our research is concerned with both climate change and the climate variability that is happening from year to year.

    “Information on variability is more important for the management of the water system as it will help to forecast the inflow into reservoirs and allow for better planning of water use for irrigation.

    “However, information on the impacts of climatic change is important for the longer term management of water resources and to help us understand what is happening in the mountains under global warming.”

    The findings are published in the American Meteorological Society’s Journal of Climate.
