From T. Bogg: Dr. Michael Mann, Professor of Meteorology with Joint Appointment with the Department of Geosciences and Director, Earth System Science Center, at Penn State University, has filed suit against NRO, and writers Mark Steyn and Rand Stimberg for their statements regarding him and his research, in particular but not limited to comparing him to child molester Jerry Sandusky:
Remember back in August when NRO’s Mark Steyn wrote a post at The Corner where he called Penn State climate scientist Michael Mann’s work “Fraudulent” and then, riffing off of a Rand Simberg (remember when Simberg almost used to be “a thing” as a blogger?) post, Steyn added this:If an institution is prepared to cover up systemic statutory rape of minors, what won’t it cover up? Whether or not he’s “the Jerry Sandusky of climate change”, he remains the Michael Mann of climate change, in part because his “investigation” by a deeply corrupt administration was a joke.
