I do wish there were some sources listed for this but appalling if true.

No surprise by their "lack" of response. Me thinks they know exactly what they're doing. :mad:

I dont want to come off defending any sides, but my initial impression is, if BP was honest about the size of the oil spill, we would have taken the help right away. BP initially said the spill was 1,000 barrels a day, which is a lot but something that is manageable. Whatever it is now, 30K, 60K, 100K...if it was reported properly by BP...who knows where we would be right now instead.

Leave it to Halliburton to find a way to profit off the spill. :p

Because, as we all know, profit is evil. No one's allowed to make money off of anything, especially wars and disasters. Any company that's ever made money, ever, is bad. We know this.

If you don't like Halliburton being basically the only company in the world that does what they do, get off your fat *** and start a rival company. But then again, that would take work, wouldn't it? Hmm. You'd probably need a different approach.
 
Re: Gulf Oil Spill 2010

I've watched anderson cooper a few times over the past week or so. I can't recall a single moment where he's said anything worth hearing.

Hell, fox news makes me more ****ed off at BP than AC360. It's like watching whale wars but with only a single dingbat instead of a whole ship full of them.

None of his guests or anderson cooper himself have offered anything of substance on this oil spill. No suggestions, no ideas, nothing original. It's just him telling me that I should be ****ed off at BP. I ALREADY AM ANDERSON!! I don't think I could be any more angry at BP.

(And now he's moving on to one of the least important stories since the clinton "sex scandal": The al gore "sex scandal" But I digress...

If BP can follow up a great rookie season with solid numbers, it could be a future 24 Hour News Channel Exploitation Hall of Fame inductee:

OJ
Lewinsky
9/11
Katrina

I may have blissfully forgotten some.

Re: Gulf Oil Spill 2010

What's even more extrodinary is that Anderson Cooper apparently hasn't heard, cameras now have something called "zoom". Feign some more outrage AC.

I only have a problem with this if they are banning pictures from being published. If the paparazzi can pick out celebs half nude from 100s of feet away, a real photog should be able to deal with it no problem.

But then again, I should expect much from a sensationalist like AC.

That's what I said! I mean, I get fox and MSNBC. At least they have angles. Right or wrong.

CNN just doesn't have a ******ing clue. The face of their network is a moron that comes off as stupid as Sarah Palin or that fat chick from milwaukee. Between AC and Nancy Grace, I have no idea who ****es me off more.
