William Connolley, arguably the world’s most influential global
warming advocate after Al Gore, has lost his bully pulpit. Connolley did
not wield his influence by the quality of his research or the force of
his argument but through his administrative position at Wikipedia, the
most popular reference source on the planet. Through his position, Connolley for years kept dissenting views on global warming out of Wikipedia, allowing only those that promoted the view that global warming represented a threat to mankind. As a result, Wikipedia became a leading source of global warming propaganda, with Connolley its chief propagandist. His career as a global warming propagandist has now been stopped, following a unanimous verdict that came down today through an arbitration proceeding conducted by Wikipedia. In the decision, a slap-down for the once-powerful Connolley by his peers, he has been barred from participating in any article, discussion or forum dealing with global warming. In addition, because he rewrote biographies of scientists and others he disagreed with, to either belittle their accomplishments or make them appear to be frauds, Wikipedia barred him — again unanimously — from editing biographies of those in the climate change field. I have written several columns for the National Post on Connolley’s role as a propagandist. Two of them appear here and here. Source Link: opinion.financialpost.com
