The main findings from the study of ten UK national newspapers can be summarised thus: [...] The Global Warming Policy Foundation (GWPF) has been particularly successful in getting its views reported across most of the 10 UK newspapers. The two most quoted sceptics by far in the second period were Lord Lawson and Benny Peiser (more than 80 times between them) both from the GWPF. --James Painter, Poles Apart: the International Reporting of Climate Scepticism, University of Oxford, Reuters Institute for the study of Journalism, November 2011
At The British Council for the launch of "Poles Apart: the International Reporting of Climate Scepticism" by James Painter. It was Benny Peiser's night - even Andy Revkin agreed with him. --Maurizio Morabito, at the British Council event, 10 November 2011 Everybody agreeing with and/or congratulating Benny 😊 - the GWPF has become an important and recognized player.--Maurizio Morabito, 10 November I congratulated Benny on his brilliant propaganda campaign, greatly helped by ideological op-ed desks. --Bob Ward, 10 November 2011

Benny thanks Bob Ward for helping establish GWPF's public profile. --Oliver Morton, 10 November 2011 Clues come in an additional chapter in the report, which looks at 10 UK newspapers - virtually all the national dailies, in other words. Among other things, it shows the success that the the Global Warming Policy Foundation (GWPF) has had in inserting itself into national discourse since its establishment in 2009 - a success noted this week by the conservativehome blog, which describes it as "one of the most important think-tanks in Britain today". --Richard Black, BBC News, 10 November 2011
