It's SUMMER! New York Times Declares July Heat ‘Impossible’ Without ‘Climate Change’

The collective brain of The New York Times suffered a system failure and forgot that it gets hot during summertime.
Times climate reporter Raymond Zhong published an asinine piece of eco-activist agitprop with a headline that epitomized the definition of begging the question:
“Without Climate Change, U.S. Heat Wave Called ‘Virtually Impossible.’”
And like clockwork, Zhong predictably skewered humanity for causing the summer heatwave: “Heat and humidity as severe, prolonged and far-reaching as this week’s would have been ‘virtually impossible’ in the Northeast and eastern Canada before humans began warming the planet, a team of scientists said on Friday.”
Zhong relied on the scareporn put out by World Weather Attribution, a notorious climate activist organization that aims to quantify humanity’s impact on weather-related events, according to Influence Watch. One of its core funders is none other than Washington Post owner Jeff Bezos, who’s infamous for the billions he’s pumped into furthering his longstanding obsession with climate politics. If that wasn’t bad enough, WWA has been called out for circumventing regular peer-review processes in exchange for “rapid attribution studies.” In fact, by WWA’s own admission, only “about a quarter of WWA studies” are published in peer-reviewed journals.
