On Saturday a deal, theoretically regarding climate change, was reached by delegates in Paris. The nations involved must still sign and ratify the deal, but that didn't stop an absolutely absurd emotional release on the part of climate fear-mongers around the world and especially in the media.
For just one example, MSNBC's Tony Dokoupil acted more like a left-wing environmentalist than a journalist on Weekends With Alex Witt, as he reported on the Paris climate change talks. Dokoupil trumpeted how "it's really like a Mars lander kind of moment — a NASA moonshot moment."
The correspondent later touted how "history will be made" if the talks conclude successfully, and added, "I can't wait to see how it turns out, because there's going to be celebration if it's successful; and there could really be rioting in the streets here if it fails.
Apparently the rest of the media caught a case of "I'll have what he's having" and joined in the 'celebration'.
