Latif was not misquoted. Apparently the Daily Mail and Fox News reported that the NSIDC said, "The warming of the Earth since 1900 is due to natural oceanic cycles, and not man-made greenhouse gases." Ok, fine. The NSIDC was misquoted but the others who said what they said were not.

There have been other articles dating back to the same week of the UN's World Climate Conference in September, which quoted Latif as saying that the earth *may* be enterring a decade or two of cooling, before starting another warming trend. The Fox News article reported the same thing which was the basis of their article. I'm surprised they are just now reporting on it especially since Latif said these things back in September!

Lastly, I really do not trust articles where a reporter quotes someone quoting someone else ... reference the paragraphs with Steven Benen and Dr. Joseph Romm. Why not just quote the source itself? Very shady. If Latif and the NSIDC said it, then quote it as such! Seriously, I have a Kentuckian edumacation and the grammar slight-of-hand in that article is very suspicious. But don't trust me, ask the jellyfish.
