Study: Media Under-Reported Climate Science During UN Copenhagen Summit

HeadlineNov 15, 2010

And a new media study argues climate science was significantly under-reported in the media’s coverage of the U.N. Copenhagen environmental summit last year. According to Oxford University’s Reuters Institute for the Study of Journalism, less than 10 percent of articles written about the Copehnagen conference focused on climate science. Much of the coverage instead focused on the so-called controversy surrounding the stolen emails from a British university that were hyped by global warming deniers. The study comes ahead of a follow-up summit in Mexico beginning later this month.
