ARTICLE REVIEWS
Popular story on Fox2Now accurately describes 2017 global temperature, sea ice extent
in Fox2News, CNN, by Brandon Miller
“The article is factually correct. The reality that Arctic sea ice is getting younger is not so well known from the public, so such an article is welcome.
The article’s title and the front video are about sea ice, but most of the rest of the text is about global temperatures.”
