This campaign of ignorance, deceitfulness, stupidity and venality is winning. When a mis-statement by a scientist goes viral around the net, but the clarification does not, it only leads to a public, already predispositioned not to believe the science, entrenching those held beliefs. How much of those stolen e-mails was mis-interpreted by the deniers for their own gain?
