The company felt ______ at President Obama’s criticism.

The president is ordering a review of mines that have bad safety records. This comes after last week’s tragedy at the Upper Big Branch Mine in West Virginia. President Obama has criticized the company that owns the mine, specifically because of its safety record. The company called that criticism "regrettable" and said the president may be misinformed about the mine’s safety record. Meantime, the governor of West Virginia has asked all of the state’s miners to show up for work today. But instead of producing coal, he wants them to spend the day reevaluating safety procedures.
