so confirm is 960 service leader fault ah?
the sentence in the report is "SMRT bus collides with taxi"
don't our reporters learn how to create a sentence that does not
speculate who to blame?
It sounds more professional than "SMRT bus bangs into
taxi".
You can't actually tell anything from that statement
actually.....so one would have to be lacking in analytical skills
if he/she jumps to that conclusion.
Even if it says "taxi collides with SMRT bus", you can still
draw the conclusion that SMRT bus is at fault. The arrangement of
words doesn't matter if you're biased.
Its not the newspaper's fault if they only report information on
hand ( eg SMRT driver gets suspended while no news on the taxi
driver). Its not the job of reporters to speculate: Its likely that
the taxi driver faces sacking etc. With the limited space, it
wasn't surprising that they did not add: Cabby could not be reached
for comments etc.
Its the readers' duty to think critically.
