Most news articles these days will follow it with language like: "__ marked the hottest July on record. In fact, __ of the top ___ Julys have occurred in the last 10 years."
Reputable news outlets are also good about including boilerplate like:
"While we can't attribute any single event to climate change, scientists predict an increasing frequency of events like ___."
Extreme event frequency is one of the most unambiguous signals of climate change that people can see and relate to. I feel like you're either consuming sub-par media or attacking a straw-man.
