Many of the audience at last month's Fortune Forum summit were restless as Mr Gore, who has won both a Nobel Peace Prize and an Oscar for his campaigning work this year, delivered the half-hour speech that netted him £100,000.
The glittering fundraiser was held in The Royal Courts of Justice and attracted world leaders, entrepreneurs and celebrity activists including Bob Geldof, Darryl Hannah and Jerry Hall, who was there as "a Special Ambassador of The Alliance for a New Humanity". Guests had paid between £1,000 and £50,000 to attend.

Alliance for a New Humanity- that's rich.

But a source told The Mail on Sunday: "Many guests looked tired and began to talk among themselves during his speech. Heads began to twitch with tiredness.

"Al uses his position for great personal gain. He goes from event to event delivering a similar speech, earning a large fee, and a lot of the time he doesn't actually inform the audience.

You think? Perhaps, there better ways to get informed; sure, it's doubtful, but maybe possible.

But the whole article is really about this:

He refused to speak to journalists and security would usher away VIP guests and the Press.
...
"The other guests were cut off. It was very clear that many guests were disappointed by this.

Probably the press didn't even pay the 1000 pound fee, and those only paying 1000 pounds shouldn't expect much. They get to be in the same room with Gore, and not to mention all the other big names who are there who are paying the real money.
Beside how many times does Gore need to talk to these reporters- are they actually going to say or ask anything which is vaguely interesting. Gore is making truckloads of money, he has a shelf life, and he simply doesn't have the time in his day to waste on these losers.
