Western Press Blames Crashed Plane's Crew: Journalism Or Pilot-Bashing?
The Western press's handling of the AI171 probe report has sparked intense scrutiny, with many questioning whether their coverage constitutes journalism or pilot-bashing. A day before the official report, prominent outlets like the Wall Street Journal have been quick to blame the crew, raising concerns about motivated leaks and preemptive strikes. The stakes are high, and the narrative seems to be shaping up to absolve Boeing of responsibility. Critics argue that this approach reeks of 'guilt writ large,' where the pilots are presumed guilty without conclusive evidence. As the investigation unfolds, it's essential to separate facts from fiction and hold the media accountable for their role in shaping public perception.
