National Geographic posted it last December with the caption: \u201cThis Is What Climate Change Looks Like.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>It became their most-viewed web video, ever. The Drive-Bys picked up the story, calling it &#8220;gut-wrenching\u201d and \u201csoul-crushing,&#8221; and blaming Republicans for global warming, killing this poor bear. The video was ultimately shared with 2.5 billion people.<\/p>\n<p>But nw the photographer, Cristina Mittermeier, says: Never mind.<\/p>\n<p>In the upcoming issue of National Geographic, she says her team lost control of the narrative because people missed the \u201cnuances.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>What nuances? Well, that she had no idea why the polar bear was on its last legs. In an editor\u2019s note, National Geographic admits: There is no way to know for certain why this bear was on the verge of death.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignright size-full wp-image-241581\" src=\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/00-Rush-Morning-Update-2.gif\" alt=\"\" width=\"199\" height=\"137\">Sounds familiar.<\/p>\n<p>In fact, I found a similar quote: \u201cNobody knows why this bear didn\u2019t make it. It could have been sick, which happens in nature. But we do know this: A \u2018soul-crushing\u2019 video blaming global warming is total BS.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Who said that? Me, the day the video was released.<\/p>\n<p>It didn\u2019t take me seven months to figure it out. Which is why I tell you: DO NOT DOUBT ME!
