The aftermath of UA93 recieved saturation coverage in the US media. Various conspiracy/coverup theories were advanced (many are still on the web), but the general opinion seemed to settle on the 'heroes' story. Whether this is due to successful 'spin' or not, I can't say.

But the question that was never asked was if UA93 wasn't shot down, why the hell not ?. The government looks bad either way - killing the passengers or demonstrating a stunning failure of the air defences. For that reason the case is closed as far as the authorities are concerned and it will be a long time before the full story is known, if ever. Assuming somebody knows the full story, confusion was rife that terrible day.
