It's all about getting clicks and pageviews.
Reuters starts with a headline that insinuates that the whole reason the 787 is having problems is because Boeing pushed regulators to fast track things.
Then they contradict themselves in paragraph number four, which most of the public will blow off.
There is no suggestion that easing regulatory standards contributed to the problems facing the Dreamliner, idled around the world after a string of malfunctions ranging from fuel leaks to battery meltdowns. There is also no evidence to suggest that continuing the mandate for more frequent manual inspections for new aircraft, including the Boeing 787, before 2008 would have helped catch signs of trouble earlier.
Idiots.
