Reply to comment by sardoodledom_autism in Netflix Special Challenger The Final Flight - curious omission. by GhostRiders

Do you know if he tried to go to the media to expose the issue or was that even a possibility?

Not pointing fingers, I'm just curious as it was before my time and my knowledge of the accident is just articles I've found on the web.

It was the night before the launch before the internet.

Even if he could get to someone, there would be zero reach to the story in such a short amount of time.

He went to the congressional hearings and threw everyone under the bus, then was immediately demoted. Congress had to step in and fight to get his position back
