BP Denies CEO Leaving

BP denied a report its embattled chief executive would leave soon as the company lined up $7 billion in asset sales to help pay for the worst oil spill in U.S. history.

CEO Tony Hayward, who has been heavily criticized for his handling of the disaster, had the full support of the board and would stay in office, a BP spokesman said, dismissing a report in the Times that he would step down within the next 10 weeks.
