Alec Krosser: Additional Web Resources

http://stateimpact.npr.org/ - State Impact
This website is run by journalists who try to report unbiased stories about hydraulic fracturing and natural gas companies. An economics section that focuses mainly on jobs and economic policy is available. The website is easy to use and contains many links to useful articles. Based on the content of the articles, the authors seem to be knowledgeable about these topics.

http://www.cabotog.com/investors/annual-reports-10k/ - Cabot Oil & Gas Annual Reports
This link is part of the Cabot Oil & Gas main website, but leads to the annual reports. Reports for the past four years are available here, and the website is easy to use. The links are to PDFs, not other websites, and the economic information in these reports is all accurate and relatively balanced. This information is available because Cabot Oil & Gas is a publically traded company.

http://www.anga.us/ - America’s Natural Gas Alliance (ANGA)
This website is designed as an educational website that has information about economics and job creation. ANGA represents many natural gas companies and contains many reports, so is a good source for statistics. This source is biased in favor of natural gas companies, but still contains useful information. The website is easy to use and does not contain many links to other websites.

http://www.api.org/ - American Petroleum Institute (API)
This website has an entire section about tax issues related to hydraulic fracturing and natural gas companies. Although API is biased in favor of natural gas companies, it contains a lot of useful information. The website is informative and contains sections about virtually every topic related to natural gas. The website is also easy to use and does not contain many links to other websites.

http://nyagainstfracking.org/ - New Yorkers Against Fracking
This page has many well-written reports about the economics of hydraulic fracturing and natural gas. The organization is biased against hydraulic fracturing, and a majority of the website is one-sided. Many of the articles in the economics section focus on environmental aspects of hydraulic fracturing, but the website is easy to use and contains useful links nonetheless.

http://innovationohio.org/fracking/ - Innovation Ohio
Although information on this website is mainly state-specific for Ohio, the economic information and information about jobs is useful. The website is easy to use and contains many links to articles. Innovative Ohio is a good resource for economic information and is easy to use, but is biased against hydraulic fracturing.
