Unveiling
Remember that undisclosed hearing I went to on Monday? Well you can find out which it was by clicking here. That's one version of the story. As more outlets start picking it up, I'll update the post. Note that soon The Media Consortium itself will manage a blog of its own featuring my articles in their platonic forms, and when that's up and running, I'll create direct links to that site so I don't have to keep Googling myself to figure out who's running what.
Enjoy. And, as always, feedback!

Good reporting! I think the usefullness of congressional hearings has been reduced by skillful spin and avoidance by GOP witnesses. They must have a flock of lawyers and PR folks to tell the witnesses what they can say (including 'I can't recall, it was so long ago') that make it all sound like biz as usual.
Two key things you mentioned: (1) EPA can't set standards for non-EPA workers on cleanups of disasters (2) were EPA inspectors absent from the site during the cleanup period, as claimed by workers?
Both of these seem like they deserve some close follow-up.
Imagine if the debris consisted of nuclear contamination from a dirty bomb? Would EPA take the same positions?
Great report.
When will the consortium blog be up? Hopefully this site will be linked?
Does your role with the consortium extend to print versions of the involved journals?
It does in theory, but in practice, most of these magazines run as many articles in two days on the internet as they do in their print editions all month. So it will happen when the timing is right.
