Bishop Hill is a blog operated by Andrew Montford, a British climate-change sceptic and author of The Hockey Stick Illusion (2010). It is described as one of the main websites for global warming sceptics in the UK.
Philip Campbell, the editor-in-chief of Nature, resigned from the Independent Climate Change Email Review in February 2010—hours after the panel was launched to investigate the Climatic Research Unit email controversy—after Bishop Hill and Channel 4 News publicized an interview Campbell had given in 2009 to China Radio International, in which he said there was no evidence of a coverup. The interview was first posted on the Bishop Hill blog. Channel 4 reported: "The interview, posted on the Bishop Hill blog, run by climate sceptic Andrew Montford, will come as an embarrassment to the enquiry's chair Sir Muir Russell".
