Those "highly intelligent" people at BP (a.k.a. Broken Pipe) are still up to know good. This time, they restricted the media access to talk to some of the cleanup crews on the beach...even while they are on break. It has happened to CNN, ABC, and New Orleans station WDSU, among others. Reporter, Scott Walker, for WDSU tried to gain access to BP workers and interview them to get their thoughts on the cleanup process. He and his camerman were met by two "security guards," employed by BP, and were turned away. The only problem was, this was a public beach! In other words, they really had no say in where Walker could go on the beach. That's why this has become such a story.
Oh, and it gets even better. In a video of the incident, the "beach guards" went as far as to call the sheriff on the reporter, and guess what they said? Yep, they could not tell where the news crew could go on the beach. Now this is good journalism! Way to go Scott and your crew!
