Mock BP PR Twitter Account Pokes Fun At Officials’ Take On Nature

A mock BP Twitter account has been created, poking fun at the company’s PR attempts after the Gulf Coast oil spill incident.
@BPGlobalPR has over 65,000 followers and Tweets several times a day with humorous, snide remarks like the following:
“Btw, does anyone have Criss Angel’s email? I bet he can make this oil disappear! #bpbelievesinmagic #bpcares”
“A bird just stole my sandwich! You deserve everything you get, nature!!! #bpcares”
“Of course, bp cares about the fishing industry as well. Now, all tuna from the gulf coast comes pre-packaged in oil. #you’rewelcome #yum”
The updates serve as a nice laugh to distract from the catastrophe of the incident
The real toll on wildlife, however, is no laughing matter.
It’s estimated that over 300 birds have been killed so far due to the spill and the deaths of six dolphins found in Louisiana, Mississippi and Alabama since the beginning of the month are being treated as oil spill related casualties.
