The chief meteorologist at Des Moines, Iowa, TV station is leaving his career behind in July thanks, in part, to people who don’t believe in science. Gloninger works for KCCI-TV and now suffers from PTSD due to the threats he received when he talked about the effects of climate change on-air. Good job, Des Moines!
… The decision to step down was due to the threats and to a family health issue. The decision to leave wasn’t easy, Gloninger said, but he added he was grateful for an 18-year career in news and the support of his station.
