CNN anchor Bill Weir apparently had all he could stand on Thursday. It started when Fox News tweeted a link to a very ignorant article about climate change that is titled “Climate Doesn’t Cooperate With Al Gore’s Group’s Visit to Denver EPA Hearings.”

From?Mediaite:

The story, aggregated from the Washington Times, relates to a Denver visit by former Vice President Al Gore’s ?Climate Reality Project? for EPA hearings on power plant emissions.

Apparently, the group was handing out ice cream?and it was only 58 degrees.

When he saw the story with the ridiculous headline, Weir exploded and tweeted the following:

Weir later apologized. I don’t think he should have. We should never apologize for our honest reactions, especially when people are being ignorant. OK, well maybe an apology was warranted for calling the dummies “f*cksticks.” Let us know your thoughts at the Liberal America Facebook page.
