WTF, fox news reports 2 people dead in oil cleanup, 1 hour later, story is nowhere to be found on site. CNN never even had it posted to begin with. Come on Media, do your job.

While on lunch I read on Foxnews.com that there were 2 dead from oil cleanup. I checked CNN and didn't see anything at all. Now 1 hour later, fox has pulled the article, and i can't find anywhere anything about the two dead... Cover up? I think so!

They are doing their job. It's called misleading the public.

Have you notice Obama hasn't declared the spill a national emergency?

Obama Administration and BP, working together to keep you out of the know

2 dead from oil cleanup.

Not 2 dead from oil cleanup. The report was that two cleanup workers were killed. By gunshots.

2  stefan37 2010-06-23

ahhh, well that is better. When I first read the article all it said was "two workers are dead" and didn't elaborate on anything. the rest of the article was about the oil spill gushing now. Then like i said, an hour later, that was removed... thx for clarification

So shouldn't you delete or at least update this post?

You've left it here 6 hours now knowing that it's misleading. This is why people dont take conspiracy theorists seriously.

Just want to point out that this post is still up, ten hours on. The poster knows that it is false and has made no attempt to change it or notify anyone, at least fox has the decency to pull inaccurate stories.

Sorry but this is the kind of behavior that deflates a cause.

Here's the story . Boat captain working the spill killed himself.

Lots of people tend to kill themselves when the govt gets involved.

FTA:

"He had been quite despondent about the oil crisis," said Stan Vinson, coroner for Baldwin County, which includes Gulf Shores.

Cool! The coroner must have been personal close friends with Stan to know than he was "quite despondent about the oil crisis". Hey, Im kinda upset about the oil crisis, does that mean Im going to commit suicide? I guess so!
