They already ignore it, and being scientific about 2.7°C doesn't do jack shit to change their mind.
Link the 5°F to all sorts of concrete bad stuff going on instead 10+ year problems like New Orleans being underwater.
For instance, "Houses in Oregon burned down because of record temperatures!". Use hyperbole, but make it personal. Hell, turn the narrative around if it manipulates people to care: "Five things the government doesn't want you to know about record temperatures!".
It's just like the problem with US politics. One side plays fair, and the other doesn't. In the age of influencers, a dipshit like Joe Rogan has more sway than factual reporting by reputable news sources.
