BP's Propaganda Machine

BP Propaganda Machine

Since the oil spill began on April 20, 2010 BP has been funding a $94 Million (April 1 - July 31, 2010) Propaganda Machine to manipulate the hearts and minds of the world.

BP has been buying up national and local newpapers, magazine ads, television commercials and even internet placements furiously in order to sway public opinion on the catastrophic oil spill.

We encourage readers to get informed and to consider the source without believing everything you read and see!

"BP told the committee that they have increased advertising expenditures for a number of reasons, including to keep Gulf Coast residents informed of issues relating to the oil spill and recovery and to ensure transparency during the recovery process.

For the period covering April 2010 to the end of July 2010, BP spent $93,429,175 on advertising. This is more than three times the amount the company spent on advertising during the same period in 2009. BP’s increased spending was almost entirely targeted at national and local newspapers and magazines and national and local television advertising. A small portion of the increased spending was targeted at Internet advertising."

The latest figure compared with the previous estimate of 6.1 billion dollars that was given last month.

BP Withholding Data

Even as they work together to kill the Macondo well in the Gulf of Mexico, the oil giant BP and the deep-water drilling rig company Transocean are in an increasingly bitter battle over what went wrong on April 20 to trigger America's worst oil spill.

The conflict flared Thursday when Transocean fired off a scathing letter accusing BP of hoarding information and test results related to the Deepwater Horizon blowout that killed 11 people, including nine Transocean employees. Signed by Transocean's acting co-general counsel, Steven L. Roberts, the letter says that Transocean's internal investigation of what went wrong has been hampered by BP's refusal to deliver "even the most basic information" about the event.
