He cites the NTSB several times. The NTSB seems to have stopped posting after 12 March, with only one other release prior, on 8 March.

Press Release March 12, 2014

"NTSB UPDATES STATEMENT ON MISSING B-777 INVESTIGATION MARCH 12

National Transportation Safety Board investigators who traveled to Kuala Lumpur over the weekend are assisting Malaysian authorities who are leading the search efforts for the Boeing 777 that went missing five days ago.


Investigators with expertise in air traffic control and radar are providing technical assistance to the Malaysian authorities who are working on locating the missing jetliner.


The NTSB plans no further releases of information on the investigation."


8 March release:


Press Release March 8, 2014: NTSB positioning team to offer assistance in investigation of Malaysia Airlines 777 event


"NTSB positioning team to offer assistance in investigation of Malaysia Airlines 777 event
March 8

The National Transportation Safety Board has a team of investigators en route to Asia to be ready to assist with the investigation of the March 8 Malaysia Airlines Flight 370 event. The Boeing 777 went missing on a flight from Kuala Lumpur to Beijing.


Once the location of the airplane is determined, International Civil Aviation Organization protocols will determine which country will lead the investigation. Because of the lengthy travel time from the United States, the NTSB has sent a team of investigators, accompanied by technical advisers from Boeing and the Federal Aviation Administration, to the area so they will be positioned to offer U.S. assistance. The team departed from the U.S. tonight.


The country that leads the investigation will release all information about it."
