Sky News host Chris Kenny has welcomed Dick Smith’s big win over the ABC and its “so-called fact-checking outfit” with RMIT after the broadcaster issued an apology for a fact check which had been published.
Mr Smith had previously stated no country had been able to run entirely on renewable energy.
The RMIT ABC Fact Check unit allegedly conflated electricity with total energy use, claiming Albania, Bhutan, Nepal and Paraguay were run off 100 per cent renewable energy.
Mr Kenny said the apology is an “important win” because it exposes the “deceit and green -left bias” of the ABC and the fact-checking outfit.
“And it exposes the big lie of Australian politics and climate activism – the ridiculous pretense that this country can be the first in the world to run a modern economy on a renewable energy plus storage model.”
