Whatever They’re Paying Their Publicist, It’s Nowhere Near Enough

Man, now, that’s some world-class flacking! If I had BP’s pr agent, I’d be bigger than Elvis. Hell, I’d be bigger than… than… Justin Bieber!

Or maybe you think New York Times articles with headlines like Gulf May Avoid Direst Predictions After Oil Spill just spontaneously write themselves. Or, or… haha, no! Nobody could be that naive! Who in their right mind could possibly believe that this article actually represents the best efforts of serious reporters trying to ferret out the truth?

What’s that? Did you say, “Hey! You never know!” As if it could be true that the effects of the BP explosion and underwater leak aren’t really that bad? Wow…

Well, yes, I guess so: Y’ never know.
