The media does all the heavy lifting for CC, they can't be ignored. Most information out there on CC is the opinion of journalists. The "consensus among scientists" is a media tag line applied to explain any topic on CC. There is no consensus on the underlying mechanisms of CC.
As an example, the wild fires in California are being blamed on climate change. That is strictly a journalist opinion, that is not a view that actual scientists hold. Just like when CNN reported that flight MH370 exceeded the speed of light opening up a singularity, is not a view held by actual pilots, or anyone sane.
