Despite there being a scientific consensus on global warming with it's denial among the scientific community virtually nonexistent (literally 0% of peer reviewed scientific articles have denied the effects of global warming), the slightly smaller half of Americans still deny that global climate change is real. According to a FAIR study, about 53% of articles from the popular press were skeptical of the effects of global warming taken from a 14-year period of time.
Is media bias the reason that so many Americans are in denial of science?

Of course it is
