Feb 17, 2014: The Wire: Fact-Checking the Bill Nye-Marsha Blackburn Climate Change 'Debate'
If you are not the sort of person who watches Meet the Press (because you are not an old person), you may have missed Sunday's "debate" between Tennessee Rep. Marsha Blackburn and Mr. William Nye, Science Guy. Allow me to summarize: There is no actual debate over climate change. Allow me to summarize at greater length: Blackburn was full of misinformation and Nye seemed sleepy.

Feb 5, 2014: Global Post: No debate about it, Bill Nye dissected Ken Ham in creation-evolution discussion
This we can’t argue: Bill Nye’s debate with Ken Ham on Tuesday night in Kentucky sparked healthy discussion about heady topics. After that, well … it gets tougher.

Feb 5, 2014: Forward Progressive: Bill Nye Embarrasses Ken Ham Even More on CNN Following Debate (VIDEO)
When I heard that Bill Nye would be having a debate with creationist Ken Ham, I figured it would be mostly comical. I also assumed it would be about an hour or so long. The second part I was definitely wrong about.

On THE RECORD: Jan 4, 2014: .Mother Jones has a puff piece about Bill Nye (written by Asawin Suebsaeng). It's titled "Bill Nye Wants To Wage War on Anti-Science Politics, Make a Movie—And Save the Planet From Asteroids" and that appears to sum it up also. After a mini-bio of his life it says: "But of his new endeavors, he's likely best known for his politically tinged, no-bullshit talk about science education in America. Over the past few years, he's gained wide attention on social media, the lecture circuit, and television (he's appeared on CNN's Piers Morgan Live and HBO’s Real Time with Bill Maher, among others) for countering creationist drivel, conservative politicians' claims, and climate change denial." When asked what his three top political passions are he responds: "Climate change, raise the standard of women around the world through education, asteroids." Yes, Nye is really into asteroids—specifically, fighting the ones that may imperil human civilization. "Sooner or later we're going to have to deflect an asteroid," Nye says. "And we're the first generation that can do something about it." I'm not sure why an asteroid would wait to crash toward earth until we are ready to deflect it, but, I'm not Bill Nye the science guy, either.............
