Any number of things could have prevented the accident in LEX. One of them is having crewmembers who are not distracted by economic pressures placed upon them by their employer. Pilots who are adequately compensated, with a reasonably secure future employment outlook, have no need to discuss other job opportunities.
While I think that safety does take an unintentional hit when company morale is bad, I am going to call BS on this statement. If they were talking about Eminem winning best rap artist last night at the Grammy's, are you going to blame the rapper for the accident? The pilots f'ed up. I could happen to any of us. It's as simple as that.
