Where's the outrage? No, really. Where?

Fired BP Contractor Claims Photo Flap Led To Dismissal

NEW ORLEANS --A former BP contractor said Friday evening he was dismissed after taking photos that he believes were related to the use of dispersants and to the cleanup of the oil floating in the Gulf of Mexico.


It's not clear from the story what these were photos of, exactly. The nearest indicator is, "Dillon believes the photos showed how dispersants were being used in the Gulf of Mexico" Okay, in what sense? We already know they're using dispersants. What new information would these photos have revealed? Why doesn't Dillon or WDSU for that matter try to answer that question? If I were going on TV to tell people the reason I got fired should matter to them I might want to tell them why. Of course it did give Scott Walker an opportunity to dig up that video of him getting kicked off the beach again. I guess that's a story.
