I agree that the media can pick and choose and sometimes distort...when I read the report I came away with:

Authorities need to review regulations concerning this situation and make it clear what needs to be done.

Some problems with fdr

Problems in training crew for this situation with regards to the fuel system

better monitoring of the engine bearing wear.

But, as the article is what it is, it does reference the fuel problem which did cause a diversion...and if you are unsure of your fuel and you have a good airport in range, you should probably go there.
