Live Earth = big, fat, vulgar, hypocritical joke

This whole article is priceless. Here are some highlights:

But BBC's live afternoon television coverage attracted an average British audience of just 900,000.

That was because of the weather... the GOOD weather!

The BBC blamed the poor figures on Saturday's good weather and said its Wimbledon tennis coverage had drawn away afternoon viewers.

That little bit of irony gave me a good laugh.

Musicians including Bob Geldof, Roger Daltrey and the Pet Shop Boys pointed out that a concert highlighting climate change had itself generated huge carbon emissions.

Performers were criticised for flying to concerts that were staged simultaneously on seven continents.

No real surprise there. They're just taking after their lord and master Algore (and his energy-gobbling home).

The BBC's coverage, which ran for 15 hours from 12.30pm on Saturday to 4am yesterday, also sparked dozens of complaints about bad language.

...

The bad language prompted a number of angry postings on BBC messageboards.

One viewer wrote: "Why did the BBC transmit this during daytime TV when many children will be watching? Why hasn't an apology been immediately forthcoming?" Another said: "It was disgusting behaviour." Other comments included: "It was pretty bad at that time of day" and "There is a line to be drawn".

That's probably another reason why they didn't have very good ratings.

The mounds of rubbish left by the 65,000 concert-goers at Wembley further tarnished the event's green credentials.

Organisers claimed most of the waste would be sorted and recycled but the Daily Mail saw little evidence of that taking place.

Again, no surprise there.

Live Earth was a complete failure and a farce. Just another excuse for liberal elites to get up on their high horses and look down their looooooooooooong noses at us poor, dumb schlubs and tell us to do as they say, not as they do. I'm a better environmentalist than Algore, the performers and the attendees.
