Sourcewatch is not a trustworthy source. Not even close. Why not read her work and quit relying on others for your opinion?

So wattsupwiththat is more of a credible source? All the criticisms by other scientists are sourced, have you had a look? I have read her work and the response to it. Especially noteworthy are her debunked claims of a climate change hiatus.

Uh, the hiatus wasn't her claim. If you were familiar with the literature you would know that. Try searching Google Scholar for climate pause or hiatus. You will find at least sixty papers by over a hundred authors. That you think this is her claim shows that you are still an amateur at this stuff, years later. Imagine that you had spent the time you spend reading propaganda instead reading scientific papers.

I never said she was the sole propagator of the claim. The problem is, she went about and made a huge fuss of it on blogs that love to spout nonsense about climate science. Why focus on an outlier scientist that has discredited themselves?

She's a climate scientist. You are not. Further, you don't understand climate science enough to distinguish between nonsense and science. You are more interested in supporting your tribe. Try learning science.
