CNN's Bias on Global Warming

So many people I talk to are convinced that CNN is just a mouthpiece of the American government. However, here's a good analysis of how they treated a global warming skeptic.
CNN had the chance to prove my book wrong and to show something new and different at the same time. But the cable network failed to do so. The program transcript is 6,497 words long. Two scientists, myself and MIT's Richard Lindzen, different than the 19-odd other people promoting gloom and doom, were awarded 98 and 68 words, respectively. My segment was followed by the host, Miles O'Brien, saying, "Michaels' position is in the minority."
