This isn't really California news, but, it's interesting nonetheless and speaks volumes about hypocrisy. A representative of Greenpeace writes to (Koch Brothers) Heartland Institute and asks why it is ok for Heartland to use deception to obtain documents from climate scientists but gets bent out of shape when a climate scientist does the same thing to them.

The Heartland hypocrisy is typical of their m.o., attempt to undermine a legitimate organization,then discredit the response. It is unfortunate that these fringe groups gain notoriety and provide fodder for their right wing pundits as a result.
