Climategate nearly ignored in Germany

Right before the climate summit at Kopenhagen some hackers cracked computers at the CRU (Climate Research Unit) University of East Anglia and downloaded a lot of compromising material as emails and computer programs which they published for a short time on a website. Because a lot of people took the stuff themselves and uploaded it onto other websites now everyone can have a look themselves at the really funny emails the climate "scientists" wrote each other and also on partly very odd pieces of computer software. Like the stuff Michael Mann used to create hockey sticks out of nearly every bunch of temperature data some of the programs where designed to make nice curves even from temperatures which didnt really fit the climate guys' wishes.

As the Stuff from the CRU was published it was widely disscussed on blogs in Europa and the US and it even made it into som MSM at least in America. But in Germany MSM nearly totally ignored the case. Only a very small number of German MSM even mentioned it, strongly placating it.  Only SPON (Spiegel Online) published a somewath more honest atircle which nevertheless vanished from the site very quick and was replaced by new and even more horrible news about what global warming would do to our planet and us.
