Fred Hiatt is editorial page editor for the Washington Post.
He has repeatedly facilitated climate inactivism[1],[2],[3].
Hiatt is also known for having transformed the Washington Post editorial page in terms of its foreign policy orientation from "liberal media" to reactionary. "... the Post has been in favor of every single American military intervention over the past decade."[4] Also, under Hiatt's tenure, many neoconservative commentators have appeared in the OpEd columns of the paper, and a hawkish, pro-Israel editorial line has developed.[5]
In April 2011, he authored a "turnaround", pro-science op-ed, On climate change, the GOP is lost in never-never land.[6]
