As of January 25, 2975 questions had been asked, but only six mentioned the words "climate change" or "global warming."

To put that in perspective, three questions mentioned UFOs.

The prime time interviewers include reporters from all the major networks: CNN's Wolf Blitzer, ABC's George Stephanopoulos, MSNBC's Tim Russert, Fox News' Chris Wallace and CBS's Bob Schieffer.
