Kendrick Frazier, long time editor of the Skeptical Inquirer magazine, has been caught whining on the Inquirer’s Facebook page about people canceling their subscriptions. The motivation for the canceled subscriptions is SI’s un-skeptical view of anthropogenic global warming. Under Frazier’s leadership the \u201cMagazine for Science and Reason\u201d has been sucking up to the climate change mongering American Association for the Advancement of Science and acting as a cheering section for AGW.<\/p>\n

According to his Center For Inquiry (CFI) on-line bio<\/a>, Kendrick Frazier has been the editor of Skeptical Inquirer magazine for over 30 years. He is a member of the National Association of Science Writers and the American Geophysical Union. Unfortunately for the reputation of the Skeptical Inquirer, Frazier has led that formerly respectable magazine into welcoming arms of the AGW true believers.<\/p>\n

In 2005, Frazier was made a Fellow of the American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS) for \u201cdistinguished contributions to the public understanding of science through writing for and editing popular science magazines that emphasize science news and scientific reasoning and methods.\u201d The AAAS, publisher of the journal Science, has been a vocal supporter of all things climate change for years. Being made a Fellow was just the payoff for a fellow climate change alarmist for subverting the magazine he edits. Much cheaper than thirty pieces of silver.<\/p>\n

Needless to say, a number of people who are themselves skeptics have a real problem with the blind eye Frazier has turned toward the question of climate change. This blog has previously addressed SI’s betrayal of real skepticism in \u201cSkeptical Inquirer Abandons Reason, Embraces Global Warming<\/a>.\u201d Now, a letter from a SI subscriber canceling his subscription has evoked a tirade from Editor Frazier. Here is part of the former subscriber’s letter<\/a>:<\/p>\n

I find that your treatment of man-made global warming is one of advocacy, not skepticism. CSI has had the opportunity to study the fanatical religion of AGW and the trials and tribulations of its skeptics, but it has failed. I truly can’t understand your position on this topic. Climate science has been corrupted by funding conflicts of interest and political ideology, yet articles in Skeptical Enquirer refer to honest and sincere skeptics as “deniers”. Can you explain your publication’s bias in this matter? <\/em><\/p>\n
