Peninsula Glob Blog: Comment about the oil video or the spill in general

VIDEO IMAGES OF plumes of oil gushing into the water at a furious pace, hour after hour and day after day, continues on major TV networks and some websites — including this one.

Peninsuladailynews.com has added PBS’s “Newshour” video feed from BP which includes an adjustable counter estimating the number of gallons of crude escaping into the Gulf of Mexico. On June 3 alone, more than one million people watched the video through the PBS feed, said Anne Bell, show spokeswoman.

The PDN will continue showing the live images on its website as long as the crisis continues and BP and PBS offer the feed.

If you have comments about the video or the oil spill in general, please add to the blog below. We’ll keep it going as long as the video feed is posted.

By the way, to read the latest on the spill, go to the Nation/World dropdown and click on “AP News.”
