What we found in our analysis was that a staggering 93 percent of all occurrences [of climate stories] in the last six months in the prime time news of Fox News were misleading occurrences of climate science.

And of the accurate ones, these were all letters to the editor that were submitted in response to misrepresentations in editorials or other letters. So, a broad swath of News Corporation viewers and readership are being misled about the science.
