My reply from the "No Signs of Engine Failure" thread:

This report was the first I heard of the incident. My buddy and I speculated that it sounds like a baggage compartment explosion. A few moments later, all the media outlets began to report that it was a mechanical failure, no reason to suspect anything other than a mechanical. Did anyone else hear this very articulate lady on the air? I have been puzzled by the disappearance of her account.

Yes, I heard this report and agree with your observations. As chance would have it, I've been home from work on the day of several recent tragedies, beginning with Columbine, and I'm concluding that there is a "window of truth" in national media broadcasts beginning at the event itself and lasting until the network spin is given to all the reporters. This lady's original interview fell into that window, but was pulled when the "mechanical failure" spin was handed down from the head office. Sadly, this window appears to be shrinking with each new event.

Why?
1. Flight 800: The Liberal Media (hereafter-LM) does not want the Clinton cover up of flight 800 talked about, which it surely will be if this event is declared terrorism.
2. Clinton blind eye to terrorism: The LM feels that more terrorist attacks will further enrage thinking people against Clinton's playing with Monica while Americans in the Mid-east and Africa were being bombed by terrorists.
3. President Bush's Policies: More terrorism will further unite the public behind President Bush and his War on Terrorism, and make the LM's goal of hammering the present administration on campaign finance reform, the economy, and other issues they loved prior to 9/11.
4. The LM is on the side of the terrorists: Have I gone too far with this one?
