I agree with others who suggest that this is just a ploy to get people to watch the documentary.
I am generally a rather difficult person to convince when it comes to conspiracy theories, I understand that some of the peple who are coming forward and asking that this be reinvestigated are among the original NTSB investigators. Why they did not bring this up in the original investigation? If they are so sure that it went down the wrong path why didn't they say anything at the time? That is a rather nagging question. The conspiracy theory is that a missile brought the plane down.
