He responded with, ". . . what they have chosen to do is take a handful of decades of research and say that this is now evidence of a longer-term trend that's directly and almost solely attributable to man-made activity. I do not agree with that. . ."
He added that "natural disasters have always existed" and that he doesn't "believe that human activity is causing these dramatic changes to our climate the way these scientists are portraying it." And besides, their solutions will only serve to "destroy our economy."
How would a responsible journalist, committed to objectivity and truth conclude an interview that included such statements? Might he mention that Rubio's take on the issue is dramatically at odds with science?
Hopefully. But Karl decided instead to summarize with- "It's talk like that that Rubio hopes will appeal to the conservatives he would need to win the Republican nomination."
Truth? Objectivity? Not here. . .
