Video cross-posted here at NewsBusters. On Monday, CBS This Morning followed in the footsteps of ABC and NBC by conveniently hyping a new United Nations report on climate change. Unlike the other two networks who offered news briefs during their Sunday morning and evening broadcasts, CBS provided a full 2 minutes and 37 seconds of coverage on Monday morning. Co-host Charlie Rose began the segment by proclaiming “scientists are heating up an old debate this morning. The United Nations says climate change is real and manmade. It calls for drastic changes by the end of the century. The U.N. says without action there could be irreversible damage.”
