The Owner of @BPGlobalPR Comes Forward
The man behind the darkly humorous twitter account "@BPGlobalPR" has explained his motives:
I started @BPGlobalPR, because the oil spill had been going on for almost a month and all BP had to offer were bullshit PR statements. No solutions, no urgency, no sincerity, no nothing. That's why I decided to relate to the public for them. I started off just making jokes at their expense with a few friends, but now it has turned into something of a movement. As I write this, we have 100,000 followers and counting. People are sharing billboards, music, graphic art, videos and most importantly information.
Why has this caught on? I think it's because people can smell the bullshit and sometimes laughing at it feels better than getting angry or depressed over it. At the very least, it's a welcome break from that routine. The reason @BPGlobalPR continues to grow is because BP continues to spew their bullshit.
