Let's get straight to the Fox backlash; this hilariously OTT response from the news corporation after Russell had spoken about them supporting the war in Syria and lying about climate change. What do you do if you can't defend your position? Spit out the dummy and start name calling.

Brand reposingly gives Fox the backhand with actual facts, rather than infantile taunts. He states studies that show how 95% of Fox's coverage on global warming was misleading, with cherry-picked data, and how they cast doubt on 75% of climate science. Why would they lie about science, though? Because Rupert Murdoch has stakes in Shell, and he's part-owner of an Israeli-American company that've been granted rights to explore for oil on Israeli-occupied Syrian land. Ah, that'll explain it then.
