When President-Elect Donald Trump told New York Times reporters and editors he would keep an “open mind” on global warming, the media had a field day and ran headlines the firebrand real estate mogul had moderated his positions.

But go and read the full transcript of Trump’s NYT interview, and you get a different picture than what was reported by many news outlets.

Trump not only highlighted the fact there are many prominent skeptics of catastrophic man-made global warming, he also took NYT publisher Arthur Sulzberger, Jr. to task for trying to link global warming to storms.

Trump even mentioned, though not by name, the “Climategate” email scandal where top scientists were allegedly exposed for having fiddled around with climate data to make warming look worse than it actually was.

While Trump did say he believes there’s “some connectivity” between humans and global warming, he expressed concern about how much climate regulations would hamper U.S. competitiveness.

It should also be noted Trump is laughing when he answers some of the Times’ questions on global warming.
