in reply to BBC News • • •Weather reports should come with sponsorship statements like "This deadly hurricane brought to you by ExxonMobil and 50 years of climate denial politicians."
Or
"This destructive winter storm brought to you by a failing Gulf Stream current in the Atlantic Ocean and #KochNetwork ."
Or
