New Orleans staffers Kevin McGill, reporter; Gerald Herbert, photographer; Janet McConnaughey, reporter; and Stacy Plaisance Jenkin, video journalist; with Matt Brown, correspondent, Billings, Montana; John Mone, video journalist, Houston; and Jay Reeves, correspondent, Birmingham, Alabama, produced a comprehensive, multiformat Only on AP package marking 10 years since the fatal Deepwater Horizon explosion and massive oil spill. Three pieces ran over three days: investigative work that showed continued and increasing drilling risks, a personal look at how life has changed along the coast, and the lasting environmental impacts a decade after the disaster.
