In an update to Fumento not disclosing grants from corporations, Michael Fumento tells his side of the story: They realized they might eliminate more of their critics by simply accusing them of being paid corporate shills, and then siccing the media on them to see what they could dig up. They assembled an “enemies list,” […]

In the ongoing saga that is Michael Fumento’s ego, comes the latest in which he supposedly addresses Tim Lambert’s claims that: IP’s of those scrubbing Fumento’s Wikipedia entry match the IP of comments left at Tim Lambert’s blog. That IP can be seen at Wikipedia here and it is 69.143.188.141. Tim claims further that IP […]

Mike Fumento, who I’ve talked about before, poked fun at us insignificant blogs before starting his own. He also acted like a prick in an exchange between himself and Rich Hailey. Now, he’s using sockpuppets in comments at other blogs and to change his Wikipedia entry. Once a prick, always a prick.

He as blocked email addresses of the people commenting over at Rich’s and refused to address their legitimate arguments: His only response was an email saying my email was now blocked. Mmm, seems he is running away from a fight. Maybe because I nailed him to the wall too successfully? He blocked others as well. […]

Apparently this best selling author either can’t copy and paste or has again proven himself to be a liar: Original Post: By your numbers, SARS had an overall mortality rate of approximately 9%. Since other respiratory ailments generally run at less than 1%, even in the elderly, that one factor alone warrants considerable concern Fumento’s […]

It seems Rich’s post about the rude, arrogant, and not particularly talented Fumento’s email has received quite the following: DailyPundit Spoons USS Clueless MySelf You can access Mr. Fumento’s site here. You can send him an email at fumento@pobox.com. Update: Here’s a review of one of Fumento’s scholarly endeavors. Some choice quotes: After a sycophantic […]

There are some takeaways from the recent Climategate shenanigans. One of those takeaways is not that it disproves global warming. Sure, it shows a concerted effort to hide data, manipulate results, and pressure folks into groupthink but it’s not a giant conspiracy to bring a new world communist order. Simpler explanation for conspiratorial minded folks […]

Tim Lambert, sporting new blog digs, reports that Scripps Howard News Service has severed its relationship with Michael Fumento for not disclosing he received payments from an agribusiness firm. I guess Marmaduke is in the lead now. It doesn’t look like he personally benefited but the appearance of impropriety is there. Update: Yes, he benefited […]

Remember that Fumento guy I yammered on about for a while? No. Well, basically he got into an argument with another blogger and his entire argument consisted of calling that blogger names and making fun of how pathetic bloggers are. He called bloggers typing monkeys, stupid, and other childish insults. He also said: The penny-ante […]

Fumento is at it again. And by it, I mean being is old lovable self.

Friday night, some bloggers in KTown got together to chat. I got to see Rich again, always a pleasure. And, Rich, I dunno what she sees in me either. I saw Les Jones again, who has good taste in beer and is a very engaging guy. I got to meet Mr. Lawson for the first […]

I said I’d posted my last entry on Fumento, I was wrong. BigWig has posted a response from Fumento. I am impressed. It seems maybe Fumento has learned his lesson. His response is reasoned, more polite, and appears to be free of lies. Lesson learned. Score one for blogs. I was responsible for tipping InstaPundit […]

Rich has been pretty critical of this Fumento person (who I’ve never heard of except on Rich’s blog, by the way). And, at last count, Rich is definitely winning the battle between the two. Rich received an email from the guy which states: But the nice thing about all this is that you are an […]
