Following an engine failure on a United Airlines Boeing 777, the FAA grounded dozens of jets. The hosts criticize *Democracy Now!* for framing the story as a Boeing failure when the engine was manufactured by Pratt & Whitney, citing it as an example of progressive media bias.
Boeing 777 Engine Failure, Pratt & Whitney, and Debris Incidents
A Boeing 777 experienced a major engine failure over Denver, dropping large portions of its cowling into residential yards. This followed a similar incident earlier that day in the Netherlands involving a Boeing 747-400, both of which utilized Pratt & Whitney engines. Aviation experts are investigating why engine components breached their housings, while media outlets were criticized for misinterpreting pilot "heavy" radio calls.
American Airlines Engine Failure, General Electric, Media Protection
An uncontained engine failure on an American Airlines Boeing 767 resulted in a massive fire and debris flying thousands of feet. The media is criticized for failing to name General Electric as the engine manufacturer, allegedly because GE's ownership ties to NBC create a conflict of interest that prevents critical reporting on the company's aviation safety record.
Airline Industry Sabotage, Political Motivation, Computer Modeling
The continued disruption of air travel is characterized as a politically motivated effort to crush the airline industry and promote European rail integration. The silence of major manufacturers like Boeing and Pratt & Whitney is noted. The reliance on "better safe than sorry" computer modeling is criticized as a tool for controlling public movement.
