Blankenship touts UBB ‘documentary’

Mine Explosion

Here’s the latest tweet from retired Massey Energy President Don Blankenship:

In honor of UBB victims and the 120 miner fatalities since I retired a documentary will be out next week on what really happened at UBB.

We’ve been through all of this before about Blankenship’s theories on how the disaster happened (see here, here and here). The question is, now that Blankenship has declared that Hoppy Kercheval isn’t on coal’s side, who among our state media will promote those theories all over again like they are news?
