A new website has been launched containing all the nitty gritty details of the complaint to Ofcom, the UK‘s communications regulatory board, over Channel 4’s documentary โ€œThe Great Global Warmingย Swindle.โ€

The website OfcomSwindleComplaint.net was set up by Dave Rado, one of the three concerned citizens who launched the original complaint to Ofcom over a year ago. The website โ€œโ€ฆ comprehensively examines almost every line of script and every graphic in the [Great Global Warming Swindle] film to demonstrate the factual errors and apparently wilful deceptions that litterย it.
