So I am watching them cover the oil disaster and the anchor states that $48 million has been paid to 18,000 individuals so far by BP.
Sounds like a lot eh?
Well...they didn't finish the equation.
Why?
Why didn't they report what those numbers really mean?
Then they proceeded with a story about the "trustworthiness" of BP. As if they are.
What a worthless news organization. Adding to the confusion and backing the corporate bottom-line.
OBTW: That equals to $2,666 each. Whoppee dee doo!!! :sarcasm:
