And, as Media Matters has recently reported, there’s no better example of this failure than the decline of climate coverage at Reuters since that news organization hired Paul Ingrassia as as an editor. Ingrassia is a self-described “climate skeptic,” and questions whether or not global warming is man-made. Denying climate is absolutely insane.

The new report, “Fracking the Eagle Ford Shale: Big Oil and Bad Air on the Texas Prairie,” is the result of an eight-month investigation by InsideClimate News, the Center for Public Integrity and The Weather Channel. We speak to David Hasemyer and Lisa Song, two of the reporters who worked on the investigation.
