    I don’t understand why so much American media is blaming the airline for this, wasn’t it Boeing’s fault?

      IIRC Alaska Airlines knew the plane had issues and decided to keep flying it anyway.

      So yes, it’s Boeing’s fault the plane’s door blew off, but Alaska Airlines also deserves blame for continuing to fly a plane that was reporting issues with the door hatch.
