Another Take On Coal Power Plants

PITTSBURGH (NewsRadio 1020 KDKA) -- KDKA Radio's Mike Pintek talked with Steve Milloy of Junkscience.com.

Milloy says President Barack Obama is at war with the coal industry.

"Last July, he issued this rule called the Cross State Air Pollution Rule. Just in December, he issued the Mercury Air Toxic Standard. Then in January, he had proposed greenhouse gas emission standards for coal-fired power plants.

"He's got other departments and agencies in his administration working on shutting down the coal industry. I mean, the guy is totally at war with the coal industry."
