Sean Evans asked him why food programming exploded in popularity, and as someone who was running a show on Food Network at the time, he would be in a position to see that his ratings skyrocketed after 9/11. His explanation about it being comforting and soothing to a healing nation made a lot of sense.

No, he mentioned that food programming has exploded in popularity, but what he asked was what are some of the highlights and lowlights of the past 20 years of food tv. Alton said 9/11 was a high point because it made his ratings go up.

[Anonymous No.10531854]

>>10531846
He asked him what the watershed moments were. Do you know what a watershed moment is? I'll give you a hint: a massive ratings boost caused by a national tragedy is a watershed moment for a network.

This isn't even getting into the retarded math liberals use for economic models
>If the government owns everything or just regulates the shit out of everything then the economy will grow
Despite that not working ever in the past or that if you print off money and hand it to the banks you essentially robbed the American taxpayers

Also climate change was proven by WikiLeaks to be a conspiracy to gain grant money from the government but hey Al Gore said Antarctica would be completely defrosted 5 years ago and people still believe him even though Antarctica has more ice now than ever before in recorded history

>Many commentators quoted one email in which Phil Jones said that he had used "Mike's Nature trick" in a 1999 graph for the World Meteorological Organization "to hide the decline" in proxy temperatures derived from tree-ring analyses when measured temperatures were actually rising. This "decline" referred to the well-discussed tree-ring divergence problem, but these two phrases were taken out of context by global warming sceptics, including US Senator Jim Inhofe and former Governor of Alaska Sarah Palin, as though they referred to some decline in measured global temperatures, even though they were written when temperatures were at a record high.[31] John Tierney, writing in The New York Times in November 2009, said that the claims by sceptics of "hoax" or "fraud" were incorrect, but that the graph on the cover of a report for policy makers and journalists did not show these non-experts where proxy measurements changed to measured temperatures.[32] The final analyses from various subsequent inquiries concluded that in this context "trick" was normal scientific or mathematical jargon for a neat way of handling data, in this case a statistical method used to bring two or more different kinds of data sets together in a legitimate fashion.[33][34] The EPA notes that in fact, the evidence shows that the research community was fully aware of these issues and that no one was hiding or concealing them.[35]

Why do people keep falling for this stupid shit?

Either they're trolling, in which case you're falling for it, or they're the absolute stupidest of humanity, in which case they're retarded screeching on the internet really doesn't matter. Right now we're in the unfortunate transition period where society is only just realizing that the internet disproportionately amplifies these retards' voices to the detriment of society. As soon as we fix this these retards go back to fucking their cousins in backwoods alabama, so stop worrying about them.

I think the thing that's still up in the air is the fact that human interaction is hastening it, which, to be fair, there really isnt a lot of data showing that. That being said, it shouldn't be an excuse to avoid exploring renewable sources of energy.
The thing that sucks about admitting this though is that you get retards who take it as a reason to continue doing horrific things to our environment when its not.
