So, is the mainstream media really left-wing, or even liberal, as those
on the right love to claim?

Tt should be noted that the real world tends to have a liberal bias
— at
least what Ted Cruz considers a liberal bias. Take climate change, for
example. The fact that the climate is warming because of human activity
is a completely uncontroversial notion; it is happening, and the vast
majority of scientists agree that it will be catastrophic for humanity
if nothing is done very soon. That the mainstream media does not
contest
the issue of climate change, or claim that it is some giant left-wing
conspiracy, does not prove it is liberal, but that it is operating in
reality. Cruz does not operate in reality, and believes climate change
(i.e. science) is a “religion.� But just because Cruz believes this, or
his deranged father, Rafael, believes that evolution is a communist
lie,
does not mean that evolutionary biologists are communists or that
climate scientists are religious fanatics — it means that Rafael Cruz
and his son are delusional.

Yup.



How and from what sources has the "real world" been convinced that
climate change is a result of human activity? Who has declared that
human activity being the cause is an "uncontroversial notion"?

Why, of course. Liberals and the liberal media.

There is plenty of science that demonstrates that CO2 levels have
risen because of man but it seems to be the rise of agriculture as
much as anything else they have proven. This is an 8000 year trend and
tracks population as closely as any other metric.

Nuclear war will fix it but that may not be the way we want to go. ;-)



What's the libertarian approach? Do nothing?

It would be better to do nothing than to do the wrong thing. I cite
O'Bamacare as an example.
