"A new study shows that climate sceptics feature much more prominently in the UK and US media than in other countries.

"I have long believed a particular hunch actually carries some substance: climate scepticism is a predominantly Anglo-Saxon phenomenon. Or, rather, it is a phenomenon that tends to gets amplified to a much greater extent in the various English-language media outlets around the world – particularly, in the US, UK and Australia - than it does in other languages or countries.

"Until now, there has been very little beyond the anecdotal to support this theory. But the proposition is now on a firmer footing, thanks to a new report published by the Reuters Institute for the Study of Journalism, based at the University of Oxford, which firms up some related findings it published last year."
