Welcome to the first edition of The Sit Down - new project of Raging Chicken Radio! In addition to our regular weekly podcast, "Out d'Coup," Raging Chicken Press editor, Kevin Mahoney, will talk with activists, public intellectuals, and hell-raisers of all sorts.
For our first episode, we sit down with Steve Horn, Research Fellow at DeSmogBlog and freelance investigative journalist, to talk about his article "Exxon's Lawyer in Climate Science Probe Has History Helping Big Tobacco and NFL Defend Against Health Claims." This is one in a series of articles in which Steve digs into the on-going probe into ExxonMobil's role in stoking the climate denial industry. That probe is being headed by New York Attorney General, Eric Schneiderman.
Be sure to check this article and all of Steve's work right here:
