I'm sure there are some extreme people. But when I look at right-wing TV and journalism, I don't see climate change denial, nor human-causing-it denial. Instead, I see denial of the severity of the uncertain effects, criticism of the exaggerations of activists and criticism of the proposed policies around it. I've met people who would likely be called deniers because they say things like "it's not going to affect me or my kids, so I don't care". I think this attitude of accepting it but not being worried about it is extremely common and also commonly confused with denialism.
