In July 2010, Lyon was the first journalist to scuba dive under the Deepwater Horizon oil spill, while broadcasting live on television. Her report, presented on CNN, revealed how BP’s use of dispersants was sinking the oil into the water column, turning it into what she called “hidden oil”, that could not be cleaned up or skimmed out of the water. Lyon and dive partner Philippe Cousteau Jr. found beads of broken down oil floating ten feet into the water column and questioned why BP would sink the oil, if that meant the oil would be impossible to clean up. Lyon’s investigative reports from the Gulf of Mexico contributed to CNN winning a Peabody Award for oil spill coverage.
