Panel finds White House slowed full Gulf spill details
The National Oil Spill Commission staff allege the Obama administration blocked public release of worst case oil-flow estimates and manipulated messaging during the Deepwater Horizon crisis. They cite underestimates, White House budget office involvement, and a shift of emphasis from science to politics while NOAA considered publicizing its figures. The administration disputes the findings, saying officials warned on worst cases.
