ExxonMobil Targets Journalists, Activists After Climate Change Probe [1]
"After an investigation found that ExxonMobil has been funding climate-denying organizations — despite the findings of its own scientists on climate change—the world’s fourth-largest oil company is now going after the journalists who revealed it.
Evidence that ExxonMobil has been deliberately leading a campaign of misinformation about climate change for decades began cropping up after InsideClimate News, a Pulitzer Prize-winning publication, led an investigation into the company.
Shortly after the investigation was released, Exxon released a statement denouncing the reports, saying that the they 'wrongly suggest definitive conclusions were reached decades ago by company researchers.'"
