Where are all of these quotes from? I honestly can't tell what point you're trying to make — are you accusing them of hypocrisy or something else?

- ZeroGravitas 4y agoFor context, WSJ are famous climate change deniers, and before that ozone and acid rain deniers: https://www.mediamatters.org/wall-street-journal/wall-street-journal-dismissing-environmental-threats-1976 https://www.mediamatters.org/wall-street-journal/wall-street... So any article where they are worrying about a solution to climate change not working, is immediately suspect. However, if you point out their consistent decades long pattern of science denial, some people will say "Yeah, but all the conservative media denied it when they felt they could get away with it, and now they sometimes print the truth so it's not really a problem and you have to assume that every article they print is in good faith". So linking (which I forgot to do, in this case) to their most recent, blatant climate denial story is always helpful to establish that they are still doing it. https://www.wsj.com/articles/gavin-newsoms-dirty-climate-secret-california-rolling-blackouts-green-energy-grid-11662583198 https://www.wsj.com/articles/gavin-newsoms-dirty-climate-sec... Like this garbage, which I quoted but didn't link to, which isn't even just publishing some talking head on the payroll of big Oil or some Republican political troll, which is bad enough, this is the Editorial Board of the WSJ speaking on a highly topical matter of real national and global importance, and its total lunacy.
