Regarding Clive Hamilton's describing "skeptic" sites as a "stew of paranoia".

What a perfect description!

Anyone venturing for a gander at Jo Nova or WUWT comment sections, for example, would soon note the collective/group-think them-and-us hysteria which pervades - especially when they have a "breaking story".

A "stew of paranoia" is metaphorically accurate, not to mention, concise.
