Misleading Title on West Virginia Spill

Company in W.Va. Oil Spill Under Scrutiny
I wonder why ABC is calling the West Virginia spill an "oil spill"
quote:
The source was the chemical 4-methylcyclohexane methanol that spilled out of a 40,000 gallon tank. State officials said they believe about 7,500 gallons leaked from the tank. Some of the chemical was contained before flowing into the river and it's not clear exactly how much entered the water supply.
Let's see, the chemical was not related to an oil or gas company and the chemical was not an oil but a chemical used to wash coal.

Clearly anti oil. The lamestream media loves big coal.

How can ABC have this title when this has nothing to do with an oil spill?

That company is gonna get fined... and it will be deserved. But yeah, the oil part is off. Should say chemical spill.

The 4-methylcyclohexane methanol will help West Virginia smell better.

"Oil spill" actually sounds better than "chemical spill."

It will eventually run into the Mississippi River and run right through New Orleans.
