BP Caught Photoshopping Disaster Response Photos
An anonymous reader tipped a post up on Americablog revealing that BP Photoshopped a fake photo of their crisis command center and posted it on their main site. The blogger commented, "I guess if you're doing fake crisis response, you might as well fake a photo of the crisis response center." While this story was just being picked up by the Washington Post, an Americablog reader spotted another doctored BP photo on their website, this time of a "top kill" working group. How many others?
In most jokes there's a grain of truth -- that's why we laugh.
There are at least a couple of Freemasonry orders where you as part of the rites of ascending in rank have to sacrifice a live animal. The chances that many of the BP execs are Freemasons is pretty high, and the chance that they belong to one of those orders isn't negligible.
But anyhow, yes, it's wrong to slam BP for everything. They work in a corrupt and badly designed system where corporations by law are ultimately responsible to the shareholders, not their customers and far future. It's their legal obligation to put a spin and reduce economic damages to their stock.
Slam the system, not just BP.
