Did you take any notice the latest two fiascos, of their "Photos of
crashed Orion test capsule" as reentry via parachutes and that most
recent of their “NASA test rocket explodes (ATK's ALV X-1)”, and as to
why is mainstream media not giving this kind of spectacular and spendy
events full televised coverage?


the parachutes problem can be fixed, while, the main concern, should
be the ALV X-1 failure, since it use a full-solid propellent motor
(like the Ares-1's 1st stage) based on the same ATK Ares-1's
technology
