Following today’s deadly Virgin Galactic spaceship crash, CNN invited former Washington Post reporter Joël Glenn Brenner to discuss what happened. The shaken-up Brenner did not hold back her anger:
Wow. MT @therobotviking Joel Glenn Brenner on CNN *raging* at @VirginGalactic saying the technology wasn't ready, pilots' lives "stolen."
