VERY IMPORTANT: The Revelle-Gore Story: Attempted Political Suppression of Science

By S. Fred Singer:

This is a personal account linking efforts to suppress scientific publication about climate science and policy by then-Senator (later vice president) Al Gore and his staff.

In those efforts, an individual working closely with Senator Gore and his staff made false and damaging statements about my behavior as a scientist.

I filed a libel suit against the individual. The suit was settled when he issued a retraction and apology to me that included a statement that members of Senator Gore’s staff had made “similar statements and insinuations” to those that he retracted.

CLICK ON THE LINK FOR THE WHOLE STORY.

Al Gore has a history of trying to silence his critics by any means, fair of foul.

Hat tip to Oeconomicus as Free Republic.
