In July 2012 Max Moritz of UC Berkeley and several colleagues published a study in Ecosphere about global climate change and wildfires.
The study was covered in the New York Times dot.earth blog and a couple of weeks later on CNN.
The Wall Street Journal ran a story in between those two that talks about drought conditions and fire risks but does not mention the Moritz & co. study.
Fox News did not cover the study, but shortly after the CNN coverage they did this climate science story.
This should give me plenty to say. I'm pretty excited - especially because I had some experience covering research about fire and climate change by Tony Westerling at UC Merced when I worked there.
