Watching the TeeVee storm coverage in NE

You will get the most comprehensive explanations of what has happened, and what is happening, complete with radar and computer models, meteorological lingo, charts, graphs, all kinds of numbers and projections.
What you will most certainly not get, not on any cable news, local affiliate or network broadcast, is even one word about climate change or rising temperatures over the ocean or anything even remotely connected to the real causes of what we've been experiencing. Not here, not with Sandy, not with any floods, hurricanes, tornadoes, wildfires, nor any extreme weather. Not now. Not ever. Bad for bizniz.
MSNBC had Bill Nye on for a few seconds earlier today. He said something truthful, and got a quick hook.
