Exxon Valdez documentary

Watch the documentary on initial action to contain the spill and general response to the disaster. The Exxon company completely refused to communicate openly and effectively during the events. Lawrence Rawl, Exxon Chairman at the time, was suspicious of the media and when asked for an interview on TV, he responded that he had no time for that kind of thing. The Mayor of Valdez John Devens commented how the community felt betrayed by inadequate response to the crisis, in contrast to the promises given.
