The Ratings Are in for CNN’s Town Hall on Climate Change and They Are Not Good; Pete Buttigieg Says It’s a ‘Kind of Sin’ to Deny Global Warming

By The Blaze. If the public’s concern for climate change can be measured by the ratings for CNN’s marathon climate town hall event, then there’s some very bad news for global warming enthusiasts.

Not only did the seven-hour event do poorly in the ratings, but the Fox News channel dominated in early ratings from Nielsen for the time period from 5 p.m. to midnight on Wednesday.

Fox News garnered 2.5 million viewers on average for the time period, which was more than double the average for CNN at 1.1 million viewers.

Fox News also had no special programming for the night.

Even MSNBC did better than CNN, with 1.6 million viewers on average. (Read more from “The Ratings Are in for CNN’s Town Hall on Climate Change and They Are Not Good” HERE)

Pete Buttigieg Says It’s a ‘Kind of Sin’ to Deny Global Warming

By The Blaze. Pete Buttigieg was praised by many on the left for using religious language during CNN’s climate change town hall, including the assertion that it was a “kind of sin” for skeptics to deny climate change.

“Let’s talk in language that is understood across the heartland about faith,” said Buttigieg, an openly gay presidential candidate.

“You know, if you believe that God is watching as poison is being belched into the air of creation, and people are being harmed by it ⁠— countries are at risk of vanishing in low-lying areas ⁠— what do you suppose God thinks of that?” he asked rhetorically. . .

“And you don’t have to be religious to see the moral dimensions of this, because frankly, every religious and non-religious moral tradition tell us that we have some responsibility of stewardship, some responsibility for taking care of what’s around us,” he continued. . .

“At least one way of talking about this is that it’s a kind of sin,” Buttigieg concluded.
