The Wall Street Journal again published an op-ed by Lucian Pugliaresi without disclosing his ties to the oil industry. The piece asserts that if we “open more lands and minimize the regulatory burden,” oil companies can extract twice as much black gold from North America by 2035, mostly from unconventional sources like tar sands.
The Journal identified Pugliaresi as “president of the Energy Policy Research Foundation and a former staff member of the National Security Council under President Reagan.” But he is also employed by Frontera Resources Corporation, "a Houston, Texas based international oil and gas company," according to its website. And Pugliaresi's Energy Policy Research Foundation is reportedly supported by petroleum companies.
