All three networks on Wednesday offered excited descriptions about a global warming deal struck with China by the Obama administration. According to Good Morning America's Jim Avila, the President's Asian visit was supposed to end with "toasts to the landmark global warming agreement." In a follow-up story, Amy Robach parroted the President's claim that it is a "breakthrough climate deal with China." 

On CBS This Morning, Norah O'Donnell hyped, "President Obama will arrive in Myanmar this hour after striking a major deal with China on climate change." Today Correspondent Kristen Welker added that "it's all a part of an attempt to show a deeper level of cooperation between the U.S. and China."
