I like the gal...she'll usually stay on a story if she's interested. Several others were commenting on cyber attacks before her post.

She’s a moron.
She is actually one of the best investigative journalists on the planet...certainly cannot be labeled unintelligent.

In this video, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qZbUXewlQDk, the presenter said it looked to him like they tried to back it down, and the port anchor had been dropped.
By reversing the screw it skewed the ship a bit more to starboard.
I think it was one of those spur of the moment decisions that could have gone either way. If, instead of backing down they had continued ahead, they would have had maintained water flow across the rudder and maybe missed the bridge stanchion.
Definitely wild. I live in Pasadena about 2 miles from the bridge. If I wasn’t zonked out on meds I’m sure I would have heard the collapse. I just drove over it last Wednesday, never would have imagined in less then a week it would be gone. It’s an absolutely miracle it occurred when it did otherwise lives lost would be counted in the hundreds.
You’ll lose your money making dumb shit bets like that.
My vote is mechanical failure or electrical bus failure.
Cause: lack of maintenance, or improper maintenance.
I’ll bet the Coast Guard is fixing to find a metric shit load of violations on board.
