Earlier this year, a youtuber speculated on the cause of a (small aircraft) crash and was threatened with a lawsuit by the family of the pilot- he had to issue a full retraction.

Given how early the investigation is and the magnitude of this crash, I wonder how open the author is to being sued by Boeing? How is this any different than the youtuber lawsuit? Any lawyers want to weigh in?
