Fox News is not known for any sensitivity to the facts, even if they are born out of scientific consensus of hundreds if no thousands of scientists, and most governments agree. Apparently it instructs its presenters in the following way:

Subject : Given the controversy over the veracity of climate change
data……we should
refrain from asserting that the planet has warmed (or cooled) in any given
period without IMMEDIATELY pointing out that such theories are based upon data
that critics have called into question. It is not our place as
journalists to assert such notions as facts, especially as
this debate intensifies.(source)
The Media represent the trinity of banks, industry and energy companies and they are not interested in anything else but profit. We need to start distinguising between propagandism and journalism, by channel and by person.
