You won’t want to miss Lord Christopher Monckton (Former advisor to UK Prime Minister Thatcher) on Glenn Beck – Today Friday, October 30th!
Monckton as many WUWT readers know, is a prominent skeptic and has been making presentations around the USA at college campuses, similar to what Al Gore does. Monckton recently criticized the Copenhagen Treaty and the potential for President Obama to sign it as possibly ceding US sovereignty to the UN on the issue.
Times below:
Monckton will be on Fox News Glenn Beck Show, with former UN Ambassador John Bolton, for the full hour. The topic will be all aspects of the Global Warming Scare and the push for a “new world order” to “deal” with it.
Expect fireworks!

As requested up above, can the American visitors to this website please let us know where we can see this in the UK once it has been aired. It says it all that Monckton has to travel the Atlantic in order to get out the truth.
I see some curse Glenn Beck. Well. I know Glenn Beck would welcome Algore on his show. We would clearly see who is lame. would Alogore take and answer questions?
If this is neutral, Algore would even be welcomed to debate on Glenn Beck.
I think Dgregg is confused here:
“This is not political debate – certainly not one for FCC regulated, tax-payer supported airwaves.”
Fox news is 100% cable, so it is not transmitted over the airwaves. He’ll have to come up with another rational for censoring Fox.
Of course the other confusion is that while the airwaves are “publicly owned” they are not “taxpayer supported”, all the broadcasting infrastructure is privately owned and paid for, there is no public subsidy of the airwaves, except for the value of the broadcasting license which costs the public nothing but opportunity costs.
For the foreigners out there, in the US the left wing socialist/Marxists identify anyone who does not agree with them as right wing radicals.
Thanks for the heads up, Anthony. I’ll definitely catch the Glenn Beck show tonight, not so much to see Lord Monckton as to see John Bolton. He’s a very brainy and articulate guy and hopefully Beck will give him a lot of time. I encourage your readers to stick around for his segment.
As far as Monckton is concerned, I wonder if he’ll present what Lucia dubbed his “Artful Graph” of purported IPCC projections. That’s the one she ripped to shreds at http://rankexploits.com/musings/2009/moncktons-artful-graph/.
I looked at Monckton’s presentation that was linked from here some weeks ago. Lord Monckton made a big deal out of slagging off Al Gore’s accent. He talked about “Lah”s rather than lies.
It had to be the most infantile ad hominem contribution to the debate I have ever come across. At least when the alarmists make an ad hominem attack the focus on someone’s history, or previous jobs or organisational memberships and not their accents.
Methinks that Glenn Beck’s heartland and southern audience won’t appreciate an attack on a perfectly normal southern accent.
And this coming from a Lord with the Plummiest accent I have ever come across.
Oh and lord Monckton, if you want to be taken seriously, lose the (bright pink) crown from your presentations and use your real name.

I thought Beck was only on the Fox News Network–a cable channel. Is his show also on broadcast TV somewhere?
PSU-EMS-Alum (09:58:42) :
BTW, Lord Monckton was on Glenn Beck’s radio show earlier this week or last week, so I don’t see how the TV appearance is that much of a big deal
Tv show is transmitted worldwide. That’s the difference.
I’m looking forward to this broadcast. The Cap-N-Trade bill and the Copenhagen Treaty are the linchpin of the global governance elite’s world domination plans, but nature is laying their plans to waste. I hope they talk about the solar minimum we are in now.
I think the title of this post pretty much says it all.
As for the Beck “centrist” claim, he may pretend to be, but his audience doesn’t:
“Glennbeck.com is a top 5,000 site that reaches over 1.3 million monthly people, of which 1.1 million (97%) are in the U.S. The site appeals to a rather male, skewing older, mostly Caucasian following.The typical visitor listens to Rush Limbaugh, visits breitbart.com, and reads washingtontimes.com.”
Your “consider the source and dismiss the criticism” logic is interesting. You are basically saying that you don’t listen to those that you disagree with. Kumbaya.
Henry chance (10:08:42)
That’s a very good point.
All of the most hated Fox and otherwise affiliated conservative broadcasters have invited the opposition on their shows. The hosts have treated them respectfully and debated civilly. I’ve heard many times the most liberal guests on Sean Hannity and they have all been treated well and when those guests are invited back…they accept.
That speaks volumes for basic fairness on the airwaves. And who really practices it.
One only needs to look here at this blog to see that even the AGW proponents are given a forum to speak. Granted they get shredded if they haven’t got their homework done but they still get the chance.
Glen Beck is not only amusing in his presentation, he is also very good at looking at issues not being covered by twelve other news agencies. He has also been a supporter of AGW skeptics for quite a while, even while employed at CNN at the same time Ted Turner was talking about soylent green in the next ten years. Without people like Glen Beck then it seems unlikely we would find out about people like Van Jones, our now resigned green jobs czar. If you don’t like loose cannons in news then probably you don’t like him. I believe a few loose cannons in the media from all political perspectives at worst is harmless and at best explores those areas most won’t bother with.

If they are irrational…yes I dismiss them.
Henry chance (10:08:42) :If this is neutral, Algore would even be welcomed to debate on Glenn Beck
HE is, instead, too neutral, really “buffered”, crystallized as a diamond, hard but breakable, kind of fragile, delicate stuff, not to be touched by commoners.
It just occurred to me that Lord Moncton might also be a right wing fascist troglodyte too.
It seems he was once associated with the Conservative Party in Britain. It is even rumored that he was once an adviser to the Iron Lady herself, Lady Thatcher, the most right wing World Leader from Britain since WWII.
I advise all correct thinking progressive people to boycott his broadcast today. His radical thoughts might infect yours and cause you doubt the truth as revealed by the most educated and learned people in the world.

It seams Glen Beck is coming around to logical thinking but you must remember, he is a divide and conker (CFR) Council on Foreign Relations member, just as virtually all journalists and reporters are. Their main goal is to adhere to and promote the Council’s written foreign policy, which is to say only positive things about a certain country in the Middle East and push for global governance. US foreign Policy is written by foreigners for foreigners.

“I thought that this site was more interested in actual science than politics.”
I believe your question is directed at the wrong website. It would be much more appropriate here:

October 7 2009, Lord Monkton was at Regina (Saskatchewan, Canada) to debate with Rayner debate on Climate change.
Here the video:
http://www.fcpp.org/mediamap.php/5
This is not political debate – certainly not one for FCC regulated, tax-payer supported airwaves.
Luckily, since Beck is on cable, that’s not an issue.
(I presume you’d have the same issue with Jim Hansen or Al Gore on Olbermann.)
The BBC take on the Piers Corbyn meeting can be read at http://www.bbc.co.uk/blogs/thereporters/richardblack/
A quick note from Pedants Я Us: I believe that’s properly “Christopher Lord Monckton”.
[snip – please stop posting links to your book]
Shame Monckton could only get on Beck. Beck isn’t right-wing, or libertarian; he’s a self-promoting loony. Also, I don’t think he can spell oligarchy.
I have watched Glen Beck recently, the last 2 weeks. He is not a journalist per se, and will tell you so. He does have a news network behind him with plenty of journalists to do the digging.
What you get is an hour of Monckton in full view of America’s largest audience, which Fox News carries.
Those of you who are familiar with Beck’s point-of-view know he’s not right-wing at all. He’s more on the Libertarian/Populist axis. Left wing / Right wing are the X-axis of politices, Beck is on the Y-axis.
And one last thing, Beck maintains a red phone straight to the White House, and he reminds everyone that so far, nobody from the Administration has called him. Guess who will be added to that Red Phone list?
So, WUWT readership, this is the moment you have been yearning for. 1 full hour of the “other side” of the debate over Climate Change. It’s probably as good as you are going to get, so pay attention and prepare to answer a lot of questions from the sheepie that have noticed the world outside thier window doing exactly the opposite of what AGW predicted. The trolls will also be ready.
Political?
Yes, it is fought in the halls of Congress, as the ‘scientists’ who concocted AGW in secret won’t go mano-a-mano, but prefer to hide behind their sandbags of secrecy and obfuscation. It’s political now.
