Jury to decide on climate scientist Michael Mann's defamation suit over comparison to molester
It's been 12 years since a pair of conservative writers compared a prominent climate scientist to a convicted child molester for his depiction of global warming. Closing arguments were made Wednesday in a lawsuit brought by Michael Mann, who rose to fame for a graph first published in 1998 in the journal Nature that was dubbed the “hockey stick” for its dramatic illustration of a warming planet. The work brought Mann, then at Penn State but now at University of Pennsylvania, wide exposure.
