Look out, folks. Bill O’Reilly is about to talk about global warming again on the O’Reilly Factor.

Of course, he’s already reached his conclusion that โ€œNobody can control the climate but God.โ€ ย It’s just that he doesn’t have any data to back up his anti-science position.ย 

So he has one of his producers on the hunt today, apparently scrambling last minute, looking for โ€œthe very best argumentsโ€ to support climate change denial. Here’s the email DeSmogBlog received this morning:ย ย ย 

I feel for O’Reilly’s producers, honestly. It must be tough to face this โ€œvery tight deadlineโ€ problem when asked to provide factual support for a baseless, ideologically-motivated assumption.

Good luck, Robert and friends. It’s a difficult job making stuff up so your boss can maintain hisย politically driven network’sย ignorance about climate science. ย 

Who knows, maybe he’ll surprise us this time. Stayย tuned.ย
