    Papantonio: BP's Floating 3rd World Death Trap
    golefttv | 22 July 2010 A new report shows that workers aboard the Deepwater Horizon oil rig had been warning their superiors for weeks (if not months) that the conditions of the equipment and safety procedures were in serious trouble. In spite of that, BP told them to continue business as usual. This is part of a pattern of behavior exhibited by BP over the years, and Mike Papantonio appears on The Ed Show on MSNBC to talk about BP\\\\\\\'s culture of corruption.

    GRITtv: Sam Seder on the right wing smear campaign machine
    lauraflanders | 22 July 2010 GRITtv is off to Netroots Nation in Las Vegas, but before we headed out, we spoke to Sam Seder, who beat us there by a day or so. Former Air America host Seder will be on a panel with Laura and others on the demise of Air America, and we\\\\\\\'ll be conducting interviews all weekend. As the progressive netroots gather, of course, the big story this week was a falsified video broken by a right-wing blog, and Seder explained why an equivalent story would never happen on the left. The problem isn\\\\\\\'t the medium, blogs and bloggers, Seder notes, it\\\\\\\'s a lack of accountability for right-wing \\\\

    Probe Reveals BP Knew of Problems Ahead
    Democracy Now! 21 July 2010 Probe Reveals BP Knew of Problems Ahead Deepwater Horizon Rig Explosion An investigation into the Deepwater Horizon rig explosion has uncovered new evidence that BP was aware of problems aboard the rig prior to the April 20 blowout that killed eleven workers, destroyed the rig, and launched the worst US oil spill. A BP employee testified Tuesday that Deepwater Horizon\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\'s blowout preventer had a leak in the days before the explosion, but BP did not comply with a federal regulation requiring the rig to suspend operations. In addition, the Houston Chronicle reports Halliburton warned BP two days before the deadly accident that it could have a severe problem with natural gas escaping from the well. The ongoing investigation has also revealed that a September 2009 audit by BP identified 390 maintenance projects aboard the rig that were past due.
