Bagdikian JOURNALIST, MEDIA CRITIC, PROFESSOR AND DEAN EMERITUS UC BERKELEY’S GRADUATE SCHOOL OF JOURNALISM Interviews conducted by Lisa Rubens in 2010 Copyright © 2011 by The Regents of the University of California ii Since 1954 the Regional Oral History Office has been interviewing leading participants in or well-placed witnesses to major events in the development of Northern California, the West, and the nation. Oral History is a method of collecting historical information through tape-recorded interviews between a narrator with firsthand knowledge of historically significant events and a well-informed interviewer, with the goal of preserving substantive additions to the historical record. The tape recording is transcribed, lightly edited for continuity and clarity, and reviewed by the interviewee. The corrected manuscript is bound with photographs and illustrative materials and placed in The Bancroft Library at the University of California, Berkeley, and in other research collections for scholarly use. Because it is primary material, oral history is not intended to present the final, verified, or complete narrative of events. It is a spoken account, offered by the interviewee in response to questioning, and as such it is reflective, partisan, deeply involved, and irreplaceable. ********************************* All uses of this manuscript are covered by a legal agreement between The Regents of the University of California and Ben Bagdikian dated June 4, 2010.

  • 2017 Fall Meeting
    The Four Seasons | Jackson Hole, WY | October 4-6, 2017 2017 FALL MEETING 1 MESSAGE FROM THE CHAIRMAN SCHEDULE Welcome to 2017 NOIA Fall Meeting as we celebrate 45 years of representing the offshore energy industry. Speaking of years, what a difference one year makes. Last Fall, continued low commodity prices and the election projections promised a rough year ahead. While the price of oil hasn’t changed much, the attitude both in Washington, DC and in our ranks certainly has. In April, after years of low commodity prices and an unprecedented regulatory deluge, the offshore industry desperately needed to see some hope for the future. A few short months later, the Trump administration has shown that has truly embraced an “all-of-the-above” energy strategy. Recogniz- ing that the offshore industry provides jobs, growth and revenue and strengthens our national security, the administration contin- ues to implement the right policies that will open our resources to safe and sustainable development. The Department of Interior has begun work on a new Five Year Program, one that will fully consider our offshore resources, including those in the Atlantic and Arctic. As other coun- tries continue to develop their own offshore resources, it is imperative that the U.S. open up the more than 94% of the OCS that is off limits for oil and gas development. Relatedly, Inte- rior is reviewing the permits for safe and modern seismic surveys that were previously denied during the final days of the Obama administration. Updated seismic data, particularly in the Atlantic where data is more than 30 years old, will allow stakeholders to have a fully informed debate.
