Mine owner is giving a presser and saying, adamantly, that the cause was an earthquake.

He says he has proof it was an earthquake and not something associated with the mine.

He also says that, if the miners are dead, it was due to the compression of the earthquake.

he knows they’re dead and he’s desperate to “prove” it’s an act of god. I feel sorry for this old man. Not nearly as sorry as I feel for the miners and their families of course, but here is a man on TV dying before our eyes...

I’m sure the President of the Company cares about his employees, but this is a public relations nightmare. He shouldn’t be talking about how important coal is to the country. He should be addressing ONLY the rescue efforts.
