If this had been a Korean or French airline, the bashing would have covered 10 pages by now...
Who says that there is not some to come, even the Asiana at SFO took a couple of days before the bashing really started. Same with SWA at LGA.
Stuff does happen and blame will be cast, but one fact still remains which is that it has been 13+ years since a single life has been lost on a US mainline carrier. Credit here goes to both cockpit crews and to the manufactures of the frames.
