BP Buys Top Google Result for "Oil Spill" →
Rather than spending money to reimburse members of local industry whose lives and livelihoods they destroyed, or on actually cleaning up the oil spill, or training people to use boom effectively, or cutting off the oil spill in a quicker way (because really, they have to contain it in a way that lets them still pull oil from it, of course), they’re buying up ad space on Google. To help their image.
Stay classy, BP.
BP has purchased sponsored links that appear at the top of Google and Yahoo’s search results for terms like “oil spill” in its attempts to improve its public image in the wake of its massive oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico.
