I thought that area where Australia was searching was outside the possible fuel range of the aircraft?

Are you some kind of aviation expert who is more qualified to offer an opinion on what might have happened in that cockpit than the fox news correspondent? I have no idea how you think that news broadcast could be "harmful". its just some guy suggesting what might have happened. Also nice jab at America, glad you had the time to throw that in there Those weren't jabs, they were fair criticism as far as I'm concerned. Maybe I'm biased because of the fact that I'm completely disgusted by the amount of low quality press this issue gets, though. Shots in the dark being fired by people and journalists alike. Granted, the US media are not the only ones to capitalize on that MH370 flight, but they certainly are the worst. And the Americans are not the only ones who are disproportionately afraid of terrorism because of the absurd amount of fear-based propaganda that is pumped out by the western medias, but it's the US that violently twitches and destroys countries because of it... As for the ignorance thing, he clearly means gullibility, naivety or perhaps stupidity. The amount of filth that's being written by journalists, AKA people who have some form of credibility (in theory), is fucking everything up for everybody and gullible people choose to believe something instead of admitting that they don't know, as reasonable people should do. I think that this is one of the most apparent widespread affronts to journalistic integrity I've seen (in my relatively short time paying attention). We've always known that the line between blogging and journalism has been fuzzy in recent years or decades, but this is just incredibly bad. | ||

The major news outlets should be doing what the journalists are supposed to do which is investigate claims and clarify them instead of hope and FUD baiting viewers. That being said WSJ has been doing a great job of breaking news as well as ABC News AU for their really good coverage of the Australian SAR. | ||

I watch Canadian news, there was a lot of it. And even the better British papers pushed the missing plane on top of other stories that globally matter more. | ||

That is direct translation. I didnt bother reading the article. It's probably one of those bullshit articles that tries to be all ironic and clever by using a fuckload of metaphors and shit like how the Palestinian uprising is like feminism in the middle east or some bullshit and America is like a woman | ||

Apparently a UK satellite company told Malaysia that there is a high possibility the plane crashed around the indian ocean, just one day after the incident, but was ignored. | ||

There are so many people still telling stuff, it's inevitable someone was guessing right. Unless the satellite company had knowledge, then it would be relevant. So a source would be really nice, yes. | ||

http://www.abc.net.au/news/2014-03-21/planes-resume-search-for-possible-mh370-malaysia-airlines-debris/5336280 Mr Truss also says the objects spotted on the satellite images may have also sunk. "Something that was floating on the sea that long ago may no longer be floating," he told reporters in Perth. "It may have slipped to the bottom." I wouldn't read too much into it. They have no actual information other than "we haven't seen it yet", and the debris sinking is a likely explanation but not a fact. Our national news has actually had excellent, non-sensationalist coverage of this whole thing. ABC.net.au is worth keeping a bookmark on as long as Australia has a major role in the search. The most recent article is here: http://www.abc.net.au/news/2014-03-21/search-fails-to-find-possible-mh370-debris/5337908 No trace of possible MH370 debris after second day of searching A multinational air-and-sea search has found no trace of missing Malaysia Airlines flight MH370 after a second day of targeted searching in the southern Indian Ocean. Authorities have identified two objects which may be from the plane on satellite images almost 2,500 kilometres off the coast of Western Australia, but despite clear weather and visibility of more than 10 kilometres, searches have not found the debris. Three Australian Orions, a long-range Bombardier Global Express corporate jet and a US Navy P8 were involved in the search, each of them spending about two hours scouring the zone before having to turn back to refuel. Malaysia's transport minister Hishammuddin Hussein says China has deployed five ships and three helicopters to assist with the search in coming days. Australian Maritime Safety Authority (AMSA), which is coordinating search efforts, says sweeps of the area will recommence in the morning. | ||
