The Times reports: “Temperatures only 1-2C higher than the long-term summer average can cause coral bleaching.” But the paper omitted mention of the key study result — that the 2019 ocean temperature was a mere 0.075C over the 1981-2010 average.

New York Times also omits mention of minuscule ocean warming
A new study reported yesterday that ocean temp in 2019 was a mere 0.075C over the 1981-2010 average. While the NYTimes was happy this morning to yell “2019 Was a Record Year for Ocean Temperatures, Data Show”, the paper omitted reporting the ‘data showed’ a mere (and unmeasurable) increase of 0.075C.
