Appearing on MSNBC Live With Velshi & Ruhle Friday afternoon, newly-hired NBC News Technology Correspondent Jacob Ward argued that a recent string of deadly natural disasters were actually “good news†because such tragedies would help push the climate change agenda. He went on to compare the “doubt industry†skeptical of manmade climate change to cigarette companies denying a link between smoking and cancer.
“Alright, as we gather yet more data points for our warming climate, new studies are supplementing reports from the United Nations and this government showing a dangerous path for the world and for the next generation of Americans and global citizens,†co-host Ali Velshi warned at the top of the segment. He then gushed that he was “very excited†to welcome Ward as a “brand new member of the NBC News family.â€
