Wash. Post headline -- “Offshore drilling backed as remedy for oil prices” -- undermined by article itself
Published
The Washington Post ran an article under the headline “Offshore Drilling Backed as Remedy for Oil Prices,” but the article itself noted that “the Energy Department's Energy Information Administration [EIA] said that .... 'Because oil prices are determined on the international market, however, any impact on average wellhead prices is expected to be insignificant.' ” The article also noted that the EIA said that “access to the Pacific, Atlantic, and eastern Gulf regions would not have a significant impact on domestic crude oil and natural gas production or prices before 2030.”
