In the premiere broadcast, Mother Jones Radio exposes junk scientists and pseudo-journalists who say global warming is a hoax - and who get millions of dollars from ExxonMobil. Investigative journalist Ross Gelbspan discusses why mainstream media coverage of global warming has failed. Chris Mooney, author of "The Republican War on Science," tells us how ExxonMobil is one of the last - and loudest - holdouts in the campaign to deny the dangers of global warming. Plus, we'll talk to Dr. David Graham, an FDA whistleblower who government officials told to be quiet when he found that Vioxx raised heart attack risks. And comedian Will Durst, a "modern-day Will Rogers," gives his hilarious take on the environment wars.
