Tell the Media There is No Other Side to Global Warming
Target: Fox News, CNN, NBC News

The recent presidential primaries have highlighted a key imbalance in the media's coverage of global warming.
A League of Conservation Voters' study found that ABC's George Stephanopoulos asked presidential candidates more than 767 questions in a debate -- only 5 of which were related to global warming. CNN's Wolf Blitzer asked more than 402 questions -- only 5 were about global warming. Sadly, other political commentators and reporters have shown a similar disregard for this key issue.
Not to mention, when global warming is covered, many media outlets still bring on "scientists" who claim that global warming is not real, even though an overwhelming majority of scientists agree that it is. This is not balanced - this is deceiving. The public deserves responsible reporting on this critical issue.
Sign the petition today to tell these media outlets that global warming needs to be covered, and it needs to be covered in a meaningful and truly balanced manner.

The whole idea that we can continue to poison the air and the water and nothing is going to happen is rediculous.The idea that ther's no global warming is just a damn lie.You can see pictures of mountains that don't have snow anymore. Who caused that? Mrs. Obama?

It is your responsibility to provide the public with objective information, your personal beliefs have no place in the news room. There is no denying that global warming is a serious issued in our world today, and it is time to talk about it!

I want to see reports on what people can do and are doing to fight global warming. I want honest reports of the scientific findings coming out every day. I want an end to those who would for profit deny what is happening to our planet. I want the media to wake and realize that they are the only Paul Revere we have in the face of this great danger.

Tell people when a scientist is a paid shill of the oil companies, don't pretend they are unbiased.

I think Climate change is a better name for our own mistakes since we don't have facts to back warnth or cold but there is no side to the facts that humans are killing themselves with BAd air,bad laws, and no renewable ideas like Replanting,.. Primal Protection has been in Business in Las Vegas, NV for 10 years and has never made a dime profit. It’s set-up to assist in gathering help and support for charitable issues facing people today. Its original intent was a stepping stone with cancer issues, projects into programs that would later become a Non-Profit Charity to help all those with causes. Darin has championed many caused through volunteering, fundraising, grass roots efforts, worked for many charities, and has served on a few Non-profit boards. He has helped animals to the Earth itself. Cancer/health issues are always dear to his heart but he has shared his time and love too many issues facing everyone today. To list a few: Retirement homes, M.D.A., United-Way, Red Cross, V.A., Boy/Girl Scouts, Big Brother/Big Sister’s, American Cancer Society, Susan G. Koman Foundation, Breast Cancer Awareness, Buddy Check 8, WWF, Keeper’s of the Wild, Habitat for Humanity, Doctor’s without boarders, One Foundation, Live Strong, Shade Tree, Leukemia Lymphoma Society, Nevada Cancer Institute, and his own volunteer Business Primal Protection and many others not listed. Primal Protection is looking for Builder’s, Sponsor’s, and volunteer’s who are leaders in their community and understand how important it is to give back. All providers for any of Primal Protections Programs and/or Projects waive their fees, Work for free, and help gather trade Partners, Sponsor’s, Donations, Subcontractor’s, and volunteers to come together to complete the projects and gain the awesome feeling of helping people.
