So I’ve got a Google keyword search that sends me a daily digest of the comings & goings of the Airline industry – the good, the bad, and the ugly. Well today can be safely thrown into the “ugly” category. Seriously.
BusinessWeek.com’s website screamed this today:
Asiana’s San Francisco Plane Crash Seen Pushing Airline to Loss
Really? I’m sorry, but didn’t we just lose a plane, injure hundreds, and call an entire industry’s training practices into question just a few days ago? Not to mention the two 16 year old girls who won’t live to go to college, reach adulthood, and live a full, healthy life? No, we don’t care about that. Or at least the five financial analysts that put forth the data – and Bloomberg for publishing such tripe.
I get it; it’s a business. But freaking come on, already! Poor, poor taste!
