 Yesterday, Western Energy Alliance ran a full-page ad in the New York Times responding to presidential candidates who’ve called us criminal and said we should be locked up. Our open letter, signed by 54 executives in the industry, responds that we would be criminal not to produce the life-sustaining energy that keeps people warm in the winter, cool in the summer, gets them to school and work to better their lives, and puts food on the table, medicines in the cabinet, and a smartphone in every pocket.
Yes, the rhetoric is strong, but commensurate. And as I explained to a reporter who contacted us about the ad, he wouldn’t be talking to us if we had said, “We’re a bunch of really nice people.”
