The Keepers Of The Doomsday Clock® plan a major, major, really huge announcement to move the hands of the much-loved-by-the -media clock hands forward to 32.75399125 nanoseconds to midnight. Or thereabouts.
Oh, and incidentally launch their new website. Here is a screenshot in case you click that link after the website launch publicity stunt grim announcement.
The hint of the "major announcement" is in the story planted in the media, of course.
The group did not say in which direction the hands would move. But in a news release previewing an event next Wednesday, they said the change was based on "worsening nuclear, climate threats" to the world.
You can draw your own conclusions about what you think the ginormous grim announcement will be. Want to bet a fiver that it has to do with the new focus on global warming? Not that we're cynical about this kind of media manipulation around here or anything.
Not unlike The New Kids On The Block announcing a reunion tour.
Because science is more fun where there is an agenda! Then it proves more than just facts – it proves FACTOIDS!
I enjoyed it when these pompous wads turned the clock BACK a few years ago and then it was much easier to point out that the whole thing was a broken analogy.
