Also, I hate Boeing as much as the next guy, but with how complex any aviation accident sequence is, I'm inclined to withhold finger pointing until the investigation concludes or at the very least a good amount of information has been released. I support grounding the planes for safety during the investigation, and I also support criticism and scrutiny of Boeing in general since they definitely deserve both, but to say this specific case was definitely Boeing's fault at this stage is being premature.
And it's not like Alaska Airlines has never caused an air accident through shoddy maintenance of otherwise soundly designed aircraft. They should absolutely not get a pass until their involvement is definitively ruled out by evidence.
