I think the problem is that 'facts' are announced then either withdrawn or qualified.
And what is published seems to be contradictory.
For instance, radar apparently shows the plane to have turned back then flown off to the NW.
But the satellite data indicates that it ended up in a different direction.
Intermediate satellite 'pings' are supposedly available, but locations of these are not posted so we can't see if these correlate with the radar plots (or indeed with anything else).
Not surprising that people are reluctant to accept the official version of events.
