About this listen
We are wrapping up our series on the Deepwater Horizon Disaster and the BP Gulf Oil Spill. This episode we get into the weird way that BP was using security to create a media blackout on what was happening in the gulf sometimes seemingly with the help of the coast guard and local authorities.
We will talk a bit about BP's history of bad behavior and a few smaller disasters that should have been huge red flags leading up to the Deepwater disaster.
They FINALLY get the flow to stop so we will talk about the Gulf is recovering, some of the longer term damage that was caused, and some actual consequences for BP (Unfortunately never enough in our opinion) Hope you enjoy!
