He just turned the mike over to OSHA but he was hitting hard at bad reporters, and called them out by name. He hit AP especially hard. He said that global warming bills will make it impossible for poorer people to buy their energy.

Yes, we are watching. Murry wants the truth reported and not all the speculation or even pure false reporting by the AP, Fox News and the rest of the MSM!

I got to this a bit late but did get his last shots at AP and FOX.

I wonder what the deal is? Probably rank speculation by many reporters and this is not good.

The owner is out of his mind. He has been foaming at the mouth about the perceived slight against his company by the media. It sounds like he is way more concerned about CYA and spin than he is about the miners. He really should have got someone levelheaded out there to represent his company.

Sadly, FOX news is more interested in reporting first than accurately the same as all other media.

I just finished watching - rather, listening - to it. The man was ANGRY. He b*tchslapped the press for the conspiracy reporting, the environazis, pointed out that nobody will be able to pay for electricity if coal is banned...

Damn, I'm impressed.

He’s been somewhat questionable and very defensive in his approach since he first started.

He just attacked the UMW union now - claiming they’re lying when they said the miners were engaged in “retreat mining” - where the pillars are removed - and that there are still pillars in the mine. He clearly thinks journalists are stuck on stupid. Well, he’s not alone in that belief.

He’s beginning to sound like a real conspiracy theorist fruitcake.

It’s always about the ratings first. For all of them.
