Fox News doesn’t acknowledge environmental harm is a bad thing. CNN can only cover celebrities and politics-as-a-spectator-sport. NBC is owned by GE, the world’s largest producer of coal-burning power plants. Nobody in “serious television” is in a position to give an issue like mountaintop removal the attention it deserves. Enter Colbert, who starts with the premise that his show is entertainment, and then brings in someone like Margaret Palmer, lead author of a recent study published in the journal Science that calls for an end to the harmful practice. The result makes for excellent television.
