Whatever you do, don’t waste a lot of money on an army of advertising agencies and public-relations consultants trying to restore your image. It’s not going to work, so there is no point even trying.

Finally, BP needs to protect its shareholders. So sell your assets in the U.S. to one of the other energy majors while you still can. Just remember there’s a big world out there, with a lot of oil and cars in it. Your job is to look after the owners of the company, not make yourself acceptable to a country that doesn’t want you anymore.

Tell everyone in the U.S. to go stuff it where the oil don’t leak.

Я думаю, в любом случае эта катастрофа для них как укус комара, а разговоры о продаже досужи.

Кроме случаев, известных NPR, продажа компании бывает держателям акций выгодна, иначе они голосуют против.

Да, природа богата, однако тут речь идет о "неминуемой" продаже.

Неминуемая в том смысле, что если еще немножко упадет, то уже надо покупать целиком.
