This is an unfortunate incident, facts for which are not yet in evidence.
Guppy,
This is clearly a full blown accident, not just an incident. Naturally, everyone will wait for more information to come out. We should realize, I think, that many of the commentators on pprune are not proffessionals and will make mistakes that we can politely correct if we know something different.
By the ferocity of your posts, one would suspect that you're sent here by the concerned company for damage control.
Reports by the press are routinely used in court and in Congress. Many of them, as we know, turn out to have serious errors in them. But we now have a published report from cnn that an engine fire was declared by the crew.
CNN:
It was the second time in about six weeks that a Boeing 747 flown by Kalitta Air of Ypsilanti, Michigan, has crashed.
The plane's crew told air traffic controllers that one of the engines was on fire and radio contact was lost seconds later, said Donald Tascon, deputy director of Colombia's civil aviation agency, to RCN radio. The cause was under investigation.

IMHO, it is unreasonable for you to insist that nobody discuss reports in the media, and instead wait years for a gov accident report to come out.
Maybe it would help to start by specifying that that a post is purely hypothetical.
Sad month indeed.
