Boeing: Last Week Tonight with John Oliver (HBO)


John Oliver discusses how Boeing went from being a company known for quality craftsmanship to one synonymous with crashes, mishaps, and “quality escape.” Whatever that means.

  1. So if one of us proles caused the death of one person unintentionally it's manslaughter, but CEOs can cause multiple deaths through sheer greed and not only walk free, but probably get a 7 – 8 figure bonus…
    And they call it "freedom"

  2. It's the Real Story segment, is it? But I should probably have guessed, that the problem was in trying to squeeze more money out. That it was McDonnell Douglas CEO doing it is only a detail. THIS is the ultimate end-phase of Capitalism.

    And btw, thanks for the warning on the "Dreamliner" (typical money-focused name, eh? They think they'll get the cruize crowd in for that one.)…

  3. I just realized something. John Oliver used footage from Al Jazeera news for his show to talk about Boeing’s scam. A few days ago, Al Jazeera news HQ is raided and shut down.

    I wonder why?

  4. Is there an update video coming to cover the fact that boeing have started suiciding the whistleblower employees… 2 and counting I believe….I guess the clintons must have shares to protect

  5. I live near Everett, WA where one of the factories are. And just want to say the real issue is the fact that the people building these planes are all tweekers. Lol

  6. I live in India and I also exclude all Boeing models and companies that rely on Boeing, when booking a ticket. For example Spice Jet.. One of the absolute worst

  7. America in a nutshell, I know we could invest in good things and good wages, but we can also make more money for ourselves if we asset strip and pump stock prices. But hey, we’ve got 50 years of good branding making it look like we’re still pumping out quality.

  8. This is the Bombardier Curse !!! After having manipulated the USA legal system, the commercial ethics and having worked out an oligopoly scheme with Airbus to demolish one of the best ever designed planes in recent models on the market, the C Series, the curse that the leaders of Boeing are has turned on them. The continued mishaps that they are facing are a curse, not in a fantasy movie style, but in a social manner. What can you expect from a human with dirty actions? The curse is bound to bounce back onto boeing’s to management. Fiannly, those commercial criminals have lost against the American legal system (including the law suit filed by Bombardier) and had many whistle blowers who don’t accept such « criminal » behaviour talk (although they are disappearing!!! While the heads of boeing remain untouchable). It is impressive how the Americans are taking control again (people, departments and organisms. John Oliver has done a wonderful work showing that), even though Bombardier will never recover from this brotherly backstabbing that made many Canadians and Americans lose their jobs and lose billions of dollars in an R&D which produced one of a kind plane (C series) that serves now Airbus for free (they named it A229). What is even more sad is the fact the those leaders will have no punishment whatsoever. At least, we are happy that Boeing will resurrect from those ugly acts with the help of the American will, to straighten things up. Good riddance

  9. Can someone sequence the MRSA infection and do that fancy mutation anaylsis thing that tells them whether the strain is a genuine circulating wild type, or a strain from 20 years ago that was last seen in a government freezer?
