The news just reports the "vibe" of the moment, not real facts.
So at first the spill was described as apocalyptic because that's how it looked. Now they swung the other direction and are saying the oil somehow magically disappeared even though other spill locations still have oil residue.
The truth is in the middle somewhere. This wasn't an apocalyptic natural disaster, but it was a HUGE spill that will have lasting effects for years to come in the gulf.
Not sure why people follow the ups and downs on 24 hour news channels which do about 20 minutes of research before putting a story on the air.
