The Weather Channel came out firing today after Breitbart used a video of one of its meteorologists to claim that the earth is cooling.
Breitbart said global land temperatures are dropping, thus disproving all of the -- accurate -- claims that this is the hottest year on record.
In response today, the Weather Channel conducted a science class.
The House Science, Space and Technology Committee shared the Breitbart report on its Twitter account last Thursday.
"The next time you write a climate change article and need fact checking help, please call,” The Weather Channel said.
