Talk about sensationalism.

Its definitely an occurrence that requires an investigation. Something happened. But the lengths these articles go to conjure up visions of catastrophe is getting out of hand.
I looked up the flight on Flightaware and Flightradar24 and it seems like coverage in close to SFO isn't very accurate. Flightaware has the last hit before landing at 1000' with a descent around 435' per minute. Flightradar may show around 300'. Both don't show the go around and subsequent approach and landing.
