To be fair, MediaCorp did release an apology, but even that
seems half-baked.
I refer you guys to
Apology from MediaCorp.
I quote:
'.....We apologize
unreservedly if we had been seen to be insensitive to the gravity
of the situation.'
At the very least, that is poor grammar. At the very worst,
they're not really sorry after all.
That's because the words 'if we had been seen'
changes the whole meaning of the statement. I see it as:
'..... We're sorry if you see us as being insensitive to the
tragedy.'
Why can't they just say, like,'What we did was wrong, and
we're sorry for that'?
They'll never admit that they're wrong. The chances of getting a
letter from Nigeria that is genuine are higher than that.
