Trump voters hurt most by Trump policies, new study finds – ThinkProgress

[ad_1] Failure to stop business-as-usual global warming will deliver a severe economic blow to Southern states , a recent paper by the Federal Reserve Bank of Richmond finds. Remarkably, this ground-breaking study, “ Temperature and Growth ” concludes that “under the business-as-usual scenario, the projected trends in rising temperatures could depress U.S. economic growth by up to a third.” As the Wall Street Journal summed up the findings: “ Climate Change May Deeply Wound Long-Term U.S. Growth .” The study focused on the impact of high temperatures in productivity and found that rising temperatures have their biggest negative economic impact in the summer — but that it’s not just outdoor work like farming and construction that suffers. Using historical data, the authors showed that the finance, retail, and real estate sectors also get hit hard during the hottest summers.

Facebook ‘bias’ study will be run by right-wing corporate lobbyist, exclude all liberals – ThinkProgress

[ad_1] Conservatives have alleged — thus far without evidence — that Facebook has shown a bias against conservative groups or censored their content. To address this, Facebook announced Wednesday that it was bringing in two major conservative players to evaluate whether Facebook displays a liberal bias. The oversight effort, dubbed a “conservative bias advising partnership” by Axios, which first reported the arrangement on Wednesday, will involve former Sen. Jon Kyl (R-AZ), who was minority whip, as well as the Heritage Foundation, the right-wing think tank. Kyl, along with the lobbying firm he joined after leaving the Senate, Covington and Burling, will look at claims of liberal bias internally and on Facebook’s services, get feedback from conservative groups, and advise Facebook on how to work with these groups. Kyl will “will examine concerns about alleged liberal bias on Facebook, internally and on our services. He will get feedback directly from conservative groups and advi...
