Climate scientist Michael Mann wins lawsuit against those who compared him to a pedophile. Mann rose to fame for a graph first published in 1998 in Nature magazine, known as the “hockey stick” “I hope this verdict sends a message that attacking climate scientists with falsehoods is not protected free speech,” Mann said in a statement.
In it, a jury in the Superior Court of the District of Columbia found that Rand Simberg and Mark Steyn had made false statements.
