The school year is over. I've graduated, turned 21, and moved home for a bit. Now what? Well I looks for a job and till then I write.
SO what do we think of BP's advertising campaign? The Americans (well the Dems) are in uproar while the Brits are supporting the now imfamous company.
You can watch one of the lovely little ads HERE where Tony Hayward talks about how BP is taking responsibility. BP has also set up a section on their website that also talks about the company's response to the crisis.
Is the campaign really that bad or are we just looking for someone to blame?

Well I suppose in retrospect we know that we weren't just overreacting and looking for someone to blame. The viral videos were nice but I suppose since it took them another 2 months (from the point of this blog) to plug the hole with mud and then until today to plug it with cement this classifies as a failure. The CEO having been fired, the many men and man hours needed in protecting the shore and the currently unknown long term impact this will have on the sea life all add up to a huge deal.
ReplyDeleteBut while BP is to blame and perhaps things could've progressed faster (I'm no top scientist, so I couldn't say), at least BP owned up to everything and took on the responsibility of hiring the workers to clean up the shore. I guess it could've always been worst...
