The big thing that’s missing has been TV news coverage, where it gets ~1% of news minutes
Media Matters for AmericaHow broadcast TV networks covered climate change in 2022Breaking a decade-long trend of year-to-year fluctuation, corporate broadcast TV networks' climate coverage increased for the second consecutive year. However, climate coverage still accounted for just around 1% of all corporate broadcast programming in 2022, a figure that is woefully inadequate in the face of a worsening climate crisis. In our annual analysis of broadcast news climate coverage, Media Matters found that morning, evening, and Sunday morning political shows on ABC, CBS, NBC, and Fox Broadcasting Co. spent approximately 1,374 minutes — nearly 23 hours — discussing climate change. This is roughly equivalent to the high-water mark of nearly 22 hours that networks achieved in 2021. The coverage was largely driven by another year of apocalyptic extreme weather events including brutal, record-shattering heat across Europe and Asia, famine exacerbated by both flooding and drought in East Africa, and historic flooding in Pakistan. In the U.S., extreme weather has exposed the vulnerability of our power system and its aging infrastructure and threatened water supplies for communities across the Southwest. The consistent volume of coverage from 2021 through 2022 — after years of advocacy by climate journalists, activists, and researchers pushing for more and better climate coverage by TV news shows — was supported by commitments from corporate broadcast networks to cover climate through collaborative initiatives like Covering Climate Now and dedicated reporting during key climate events. However, some problematic trends continued to materialize in the quality of corporate broadcast news coverage of climate change, including, for at least the sixth year in a row, an overwhelming proportion of non-Hispanic white men featured as guests in climate coverage, despite the disproportionate harm people of color suffer from climate change. Additionally, while broadcast networks are increasingly covering the impacts of, and potential solutions to, the climate crisis, they largely fail to explicitly name the primary drivers of global warming or the main impediments to climate action.
I'll check out those small outlets and consider adding them to my own page.
I meant sites should have a dedicated section or page. Like on a news site along the other sections like World, Opinion, Business, etc, have a link to a climate page. I'll double check those outlets and see if they do that.
I am open to other suggestions for things to post on my own page.
Interesting article regarding broadcast networks. Thanks!
