<p><font size="4" face="Times New Roman"><b>Resources for the Future</b> (RFF) "is a nonprofit and nonpartisan organization that conducts independent research -- rooted primarily in economics and other social sciences -- on environmental, energy, and natural resource issues. Although RFF is headquartered in Washington, D.C., its research scope comprises programs in nations around the world.</font></p>

<dl>

<dd><font size="4" face="Times New Roman">"Founded in 1952, RFF was created at the recommendation of <a href="http://www.sourcewatch.org/index.php/William_Paley" title="William Paley" class="mw-redirect">William Paley</a>, then head of the <a href="http://www.sourcewatch.org/index.php/Columbia_Broadcasting_System" title="Columbia Broadcasting System" class="mw-redirect">Columbia Broadcasting System</a>, who had chaired a presidential commission that examined whether the United States was becoming overly dependent on foreign sources of important natural resources and commodities. RFF became the first think tank devoted exclusively to natural resource and environmental issues." <sup id="cite_ref-0" class="reference"><a href="http://www.sourcewatch.org/index.php?title=Resources_for_the_Future#cite_note-0">[1]</a></sup></font></dd>

<p><font size="4" face="Times New Roman">"<a href="http://www.sourcewatch.org/index.php?title=Hans_Landsberg&action=edit&redlink=1" class="new" title="Hans Landsberg (page does not exist)">Hans Landsberg</a> began his work at RFF in 1960, specializing in<b> energy and mineral economics. </b>His contributions included lead authorship in 1963 of Resources in America's Future, a thousand-page volume examining the role of natural resources in the U.S. economy and projecting their long-term availability. Both this and another 1963 RFF publication, Scarcity and Growth, set out the fundamental idea that the impact of growth on environmental quality was a much more significant problem than any threat of natural resource shortages.</font>

<font size="4" face="Times New Roman">"RFF also conducted notable research on the electromagnetic spectrum. <a href="http://www.sourcewatch.org/index.php?title=Harvey_J._Levin&action=edit&redlink=1" class="new" title="Harvey J. Levin (page does not exist)">Harvey J. Levin</a>’s 1971 book The Invisible Resource: Use and Regulation of the Radio Spectrum, applied a market-based approach to utilizing the spectrum. Twenty years later the Federal Communications Commission recognized his approach and began licensing and auctioning these airwaves.</font>

<font size="4" face="Times New Roman">"In 1979, RFF was instrumental in the founding of the <a href="http://www.sourcewatch.org/index.php?title=Association_of_Environmental_and_Resource_Economists&action=edit&redlink=1" class="new" title="Association of Environmental and Resource Economists (page does not exist)">Association of Environmental and Resource Economists</a> (AERE), which was established as a means of exchanging ideas, stimulating research, and promoting graduate training in resource and environmental economics." <sup id="cite_ref-1" class="reference"><a href="http://www.sourcewatch.org/index.php?title=Resources_for_the_Future#cite_note-1">[2]</a></sup></font></p>

</div><div style="background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);"><span style="background-color: rgb(255, 255, 102);">Since last year, Fox News has been trying to pin the blame of rising fuel costs on President Joe Biden through its relentless coverage. The April 6 congressional hearing — by the House Oversight and Investigations Subcommittee — on the oil industry’s role in driving record high gas prices and earning record profits posed a threat to that right-wing media narrative.&nbsp;</span></div><div style="background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);"><span style="background-color: rgb(255, 255, 102);">
</span></div><div style="background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);"><span style="background-color: rgb(255, 255, 102);">In response, Fox News programs devoted 49 minutes of coverage to the hearing, much of which defended Big Oil and insisted that Biden’s policies are responsible for high gas prices. In comparison, CNN and MSNBC covered the hearings for only 10 minutes and 4 minutes, respectively, effectively letting Fox shape the narrative around this moment and failing to use it as a catalyst to inform viewers on the myriad factors that are driving the price at the pump.</span></div><div style="background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);">
</div><div style="background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);"><b>Fox covered Big Oil hearing for over three times as long as CNN and MSNBC combined</b></div><div style="background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);"><span style="background-color: rgb(255, 153, 102);">Fox leveraged the Big Oil hearing to defend the industry and redirect blame at Biden</span></div><div style="background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);"><span style="background-color: rgb(255, 153, 102);">
</span></div><div style="background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);">On April 6, nearly every hour on Fox News — from 4 a.m. to 7 p.m. EDT — featured coverage of the congressional hearing on the oil industry and gas prices. The vast majority of this coverage ran cover for the industry while shoring up one of the network’s most dominant narratives around gas prices — that Biden is to blame.&nbsp; &nbsp;</div><div style="background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);">
</div><div style="background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);"><b>The claim is false; presidents and their policies have little effect on the price at the pump in the short term and even less impact on how gas is priced in the global market<span style="background-color: rgb(255, 255, 102);">.</span></b><span style="background-color: rgb(255, 255, 102);">&nbsp;It also ignores the fact that prices have been rebounding since economies across the globe began reopening from the COVID-19 lockdowns last year. But that hasn’t stopped Fox News from repeatedly tethering gas price hikes to Biden’s policies.</span></div><div style="background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);">
</div><div style="background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);">Fox’s coverage of the hearing started with the network’s early morning program,<b>&nbsp;Fox & Friends First. Fox Business correspondent Cheryl Caseone&nbsp;</b>reported on the hearing and cited “misguided policies from the administration” as the key drivers of inflation and high energy cost. Other segments throughout the day highlighted industry talking points, including the claim that “<span style="background-color: rgb(255, 255, 102);"><b>rhetoric</b>&nbsp;from the Biden administration” has had a “chilling effect” on oil production. Anchor Martha MacCullum began her coverage of the Big Oil hearing on The Story with Martha MacCullum by highlighting the findings of a recent Fox poll (a self-fulfilling prophecy) that “Republicans and 68% of registered voters say that the Biden administration is to blame for high prices at the pump.”</span></div><div style="background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);">
</div><div style="background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);">Video From the April 6, 2022, episode of Fox News' The Story with Martha MacCallum</div><div style="background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);">
</div><div style="background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);">In defense of oil companies, Fox host and guests, which included oil industry executives, suggested they were a scapegoat for Biden’s failed policies. Appearing on&nbsp;<b>America’s Newsroom, American Petroleum Institute CEO Mike Sommers said:</b></div><div style="background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);">
</div><div style="background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);">“<b>We all know that the real reason&nbsp;</b>for high prices are a consequence of low production because of some of these Biden administration policies, but also some other factors that are going on throughout the world. So —&nbsp;<span style="background-color: rgb(255, 153, 0);">but this is a typical blame game we see all the time on Capitol Hill. It is pretty outrageous, though, that they're hauling American executives that supply 11 million American jobs up before Congress to blame them for something that they themselves can be blamed for.”</span></div><div style="background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);">
</div><div style="background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);"><b>Similarly, Dan Eberhart, another oil industry CEO, appeared on America Reports and called the hearing a “big show trial.”[anti-commie]</b></div><div style="background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);">
</div><div style="background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);"><span style="background-color: rgb(255, 255, 102);">Earlier in the program congressional correspondent Chad Pergram began his report by saying: “Democrats who control the House, Senate, and White House are struggling to address the price surge, so they need a scapegoat. Oil companies. Attacking big business is good politics for the Democratic base.<b>&nbsp;They tried to focus on profits and turned on the witnesses.”</b></span></div><div style="background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);">
</div><div style="background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);"><b>In reality, the industry’s record profits and related decisions to not increase production at a time consumers are hurting from high energy costs seems to expose something wrong, if not unjust, that should be examined by policymakers.</b></div><div style="background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);">
</div><div style="background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);"><span style="background-color: rgb(255, 255, 102);">Some segments went so far as to defend Big Oil’s record profits, including by highlighting the losses the industry faced during the early phases of the pandemic when gas demand plummeted due to nationwide stay-at-home ordinances.&nbsp;<b>Anchor Sandra Smith on America Reports</b>&nbsp;listed all the major oil companies’ losses and profits over the past two years, saying that it was important context to understand the profit loss in 2020 as the companies are being&nbsp;<b>“demonized”</b>&nbsp;for profiting in 2021.</span></div><div style="background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);">
</div><div style="background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);">Video From the April 6, 2022, episode of Fox News' America Reports</div><div style="background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);">
</div><div style="background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);"><b>Notably, while oil industry profits did dip during the pandemic, CEO salaries did not. According to an analysis by BailoutWatch, reported by Gizmodo, oil executives' salaries remained intact in 2020 as the industry was laying off workers while receiving federal handouts:</b></div><div style="background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);">
</div><div style="background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);"><span style="background-color: rgb(255, 255, 102);">“The analysis finds that at a dozen oil companies—including big names like Chevron, ConocoPhillips, and Phillips 66—CEO pay in 2020 was more than 100 times that of the median worker’s pay. All of those companies laid people off last year, including the<b>&nbsp;nine companies that collectively got $4.8 billion in federal bailout money.</b></span><b>”</b></div><div style="background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);">
</div><div style="background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);">CNN and MSNBC missed an opportunity to hold Big Oil accountable</div><div style="background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);">
</div><div style=""><b style="background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);">CNN and MSNBC dedicated only 10 minutes and 4 minutes, respectively, to covering the April 6 hearing — even as the issue of high gas prices remains a mainstay of cable news</b><span style="background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);">. One segment on CNN accounted for nearly all of CNN’s coverage — an over 7-minute joint interview on CNN Newsroom with Ana Cabrera with</span><b style=""><span style="background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);">&nbsp;Robert Reich, a public policy professor and former labor secretary, and</span><span style="background-color: rgb(255, 153, 0);"> Daniel Raimi, energy analyst with Resources for the Future.&nbsp;</span></b></div><div style="background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);">
</div><div style="background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);">The segment served, in part, as an example of how CNN and MSNBC could have used the hearing to more robustly cut through reductive and agenda-driven industry and right-wing media talking points to provide a more holistic understanding of why gas prices are high and what tools are available to help alleviate cost to consumers.</div><div style="background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);">

</div><div style="background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);"><span style="background-color: rgb(255, 255, 102);">The majority of MSNBC’s 4 minutes of hearing coverage was aired in the closing moments of The 11th Hour with Stephanie Ruhle. Host Stephanie Ruhle first laid out the contrasting positions by Democrats and Republicans overseeing the hearing and then told her viewers:&nbsp; &nbsp;</span></div><div style="background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);"><span style="background-color: rgb(255, 255, 102);">
</span></div><div style="background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);"><span style="background-color: rgb(255, 255, 102);">“This might be a good time to let you know that<b>&nbsp;members of this very subcommittee received a whopping $383,000 from Big Oil. And according to the FEC, 97% of that money went to Republicans.</b>&nbsp;So, what did the oil executives have to say about the high prices Americans are paying at the pump? They said it's not their fault.”</span></div><div style="background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);">

</div><div style="background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);">While good, both segments only scratched the surface of the information (on gas prices) and accountability (of the oil industry).&nbsp;</div><div style="background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);">
</div><div style="background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);">In fact, in October, CNN and MSNBC managed to devote a modest amount of coverage to a congressional hearing on Big Oil disinformation, providing a glimmer of what accountability journalism could look like if cable news shows began seriously interrogating the fossil fuel industry. But the sparse coverage of this latest hearing represents a failure on part of the networks to both build on that accountability and, particularly in this moment, provide necessary context around high prices.&nbsp;</div><div style="background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);">
</div><div style="background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);"><b>Fox News is shaping discussion around climate and energy issues</b></div><div style="background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);">The April 6 hearing is not the first time Fox News has dominated coverage of key climate and energy actions or newsworthy moments. After the Green New Deal was introduced in 2019, Fox News relentlessly attacked the climate and justice actions and hammered the same messaging — tethering the proposal to radical socialism, climate alarmism, and economic devastation, while vilifying those who champion it<b>. In comparison, other TV news networks made only a cursory attempt to articulate what the Green New Deal is and what it would accomplish.</b><span style="background-color: rgb(255, 153, 0);">&nbsp;As a result, for Fox viewers, the Green New Deal has become synonymous with extreme socialism manifested by a fake climate crisis.</span></div><div style="background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);">
</div><div style="background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);"><b>In the month following candidate Joe Biden unveiling his climate agenda in July 2019, Fox News aired 7 times the number of segments CNN aired and more than 4 times the segments aired on MSNBC. In fact, the network’s coverage of energy and climate issues in the fall months of the 2020 presidential campaign played a role shaping the related presidential debate questions.&nbsp;</b></div><div style="background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);">
</div><div style="background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);"><b>After Biden took office on January 27, 2021, Fox spent approximately 1 hour and 50 minutes that day discussing Biden’s day one executive orders (including canceling the Keystone XL pipeline). CNN spent nearly half as much time, at approximately 53 minutes, MSNBC spent 1 hour and 24 minutes discussing the topics</b>. While this data may not be as striking, it doesn’t include the amount of time Fox spent covering, for example, the canceled Keystone XL pipeline long after the other networks had moved on. Even now, Fox News has still repeatedly invoked the scrapped pipeline as one of the reasons contributing to the current energy crisis, even though the pipeline would not have had an impact on gas prices.&nbsp;</div><div style="background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);">
</div><div style="background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);">It is troubling to see CNN and MSNBC repeatedly yield coverage of major climate and energy stories to Fox News, and it’s time for the networks to step up.</div><div style="background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);">
