I believe it was the "national policy" going forward that they were referring to as driving the cost of fuel up rapidly as the White House has already been making comments about halting further off-shore drilling until safety procedures can be evaluated.

Thanks for the link it was both interesting, and it put the spill in to perspective.

And yes I agree about the "Big" media, it seem they are always looking to exploit any situation to boost their ratings, not meaning to downplay this situation, just saying that the media is not a public service, its a business and they are there to make money.
