Ian Wishart From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Ian Wishart (born 1964) is a New Zealand journalist, author, an opponent to the hypothesis of anthropogenic climate change, and the editor of Investigate magazine. He has featured twice in the Listener magazine's power list, with his highest appearance being 29, and a listing as the country's "most influential journalist" in 2007.[1] Wishart has said that his book Eve's Bite (2007) is "the most politically incorrect book ever published in New Zealand".[2] In the book, Wishart argues that New Zealand society is being "poisoned" and the Western world as a whole undermined "by seductive and destructive philosophies and social engineering that within the space of a generation have intellectually crippled the greatest civilisation the world has ever seen".[3] His more recent books includeAbsolute Power (2008),[4] which details Helen Clark's years as Prime Minister and Air Con (2009), in which he says that man-made climate change is not significant against the scale of natural forces, and that climate change is being used primarily as a revenue-generating exercise by the climate-industrial complex.[5] Both Absolute Power and Air Con were #1 bestselling titles on the NZ Booksellers List.[6] Wishart went to Onslow College, and studied journalism at Wellington Polytechnic, graduating in 1982. He has worked for Radio Windy, Radio Hauraki, Radio Pacific, TV3 and Television New Zealand. He started a book publishing company, Howling At The Moon, in 1995.[7] He has married twice with children from his first marriage and from his second. He and his second wife, Heidi, are Anglicans.[7]
