It never quits. I was involved with the Exxon Valdez mess in Prince William Sound. As horrible as that was, and as much stupidity was involved in it happening, the Big Awl Boys were almost immediately at work spinning the event into something overblown by the media. They were being picked on.

Priorities were PR and CYA first; everything else second. Emergency actions were Coast Guard initiated; not by company. To date, Exxon has paid about a penny on a dollar for damages and recovery.

My point of view? If a movie casts an oil company in bad light, then I call it truth, not spin.
