Chapter 9 in BP and the Macondo Spill, 2011, pp 64-74 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract Lastly, I explore a spill that was less than half the size of the smallest spill documented previously. However, despite its smaller size, it was, until the Deepwater Horizon tragedy, the most significant spill in the minds of the American public, and has created the backdrop and the tone for media coverage ever since.
