We now live in the YouTube and Internet Age -- it will be VERY tough for BP to hide everything...The last big oil spill was the Exxon Valdez spill back in 1989 and the way we communicated was so much different back then (no Internet, blogs, YouTube, Independent investigative journalism like Propublica, Cable News, etc.)...Today's it's a whole new ballgame and a company like BP can ruin it's reputation fast (especially with social networking like Facebook).

We may also see a modern day Woodward and Bernstein do some serious investigative reporting and eventually tell us A LOT about BP and how this undersea volcano in the Gulf really was unleashed...and what did our top government leaders know and when did they know it...?? Why were they so slow to respond and why did they trust BP so much...??

Re; BP not allowing people on beaches.

<<So if true, we have officially entered Fascism as corporate interests have merged with government and are now in charge..>>

I wish people would understand that.


So you agree with wingers that Obama is Hitler in disguise?

A rare and different perspective at the oil spill from beneath the surface. The AP's Rich Matthews got an exclusive look at the spill by joining a dive team who explored how the oil is impacting the Gulf of Mexico...
