Description | Editorial cartoon shows the spillage from an oil rig in the distance turning the ocean black as two small children stand on the beach covered in oil; dead birds and fish nearby are also covered by the oil slick; executives, relaxing in the sun under an umbrella "Superslick Oil Co." are determined to rely on television advertising to avoid the costs of a physical clean-up. |
