Outzen Round-up

   June 1, 2010


My Daily Beast (La Bestia Diaria) stories have gone international:

Mercado.com:
“Pero según Rick Outzen explicó en el diario The Daily Beast, eso podría ser parte de una campaña mucho más grande de campaña de propaganda encubierta por parte de la petrolera.”


Urgente24: “La petrolera ya comenzó a invertir y planifica gastar decenas de millones de dólares en acciones de marketing. Rick Outzen, editor del periódico alternativo Independent News, dijo en el blog The Daily Beast (La Bestia Diaria) que BP está “comprando PR en secreto”, porque el nombre de la compañía no aparece en los anuncios de TV que apoyan a la industria de turismo regional. ”

Also Washington Post’s Wonkbook: “BP is running a propaganda campaign in the Gulf to defend its reputation, writes Rick Outzen: “‘Government agencies and local municipalities are working around the clock to protect the region’s economy and ecology….”

The Raw Story: “The memos show “the company took deadly risks to save money by opting to build cheaper facilities for workers,” Rick Outzen reports. “The company estimated the value of a worker’s life at $10 million.”
