Jury reaches verdict in climatologist Michael Mann's defamation lawsuit, comparing him to a molester
WASHINGTON (AP) — It's been 12 years since two conservative writers compared a prominent climate scientist to a convicted child molester for their portrayal of global warming. The jury is now deciding whether the comments about Michael Mann were defamatory. Mann rose to fame with his so-called “hockey stick” graph, first published in Nature magazine in 1998. Mann's graph dramatically illustrates global warming, plotting average temperatures in the Northern Hemisphere that remained roughly flat for 900 years until they began to rise rapidly in the 20th century. Although this research became widely known to Mann, it was perceived by skeptics as well. Mann claims the comments cost him years of funding and research opportunities. The authors claim they were simply expressing their opinions.
