The reason this article was written is to get this fact out.
Climate Change/AGW/whatever you want to call it, is literally brought up 1 time in the entire article. On top of that, it's towards the beginning. So I'll disagree with you on that

That's fine.

Yet when asked if they truly believe what scientists tell them, only 36 per cent of respondents said yes. Just 12 per cent expressed strong confidence in the press to accurately report scientific findings.
There's the backup factoid. If you don't believe climate disruption is man made, you're a dumb American who doesn't trust scientists (who may have a political agenda and won't release their data.)
ETA: I'd suggest that the 36% who blindly believed what a "scientist" would tell them are the real dumbasses here.
