Huff-Post blogger makes BP/ Coast Guard spokeswoman connection

[PuraVidaDreamin]

Last weekend I posted a blog by Georgianne Nienabar on the huff-po- She spoke of how it is now a felony to go within 60 feet of boom-
The comment posts had a reply by a Coast Guard media liason disputing the Anti-American behavior of the Coast Guard. Turns out
she has a connection with BP

5. And an apology to Ms. Nienaber

She's no blogger.

She's a real journalist.

7. Yes, she is.

I know her personally. She's relentless and fearless, and I fully expect that she'll be arrested before this is over. She's a journalist in the Amy Goodman style of journalism.

Here's her bio, plus other articles she's written about the Gulf.
