Thread: Possible Sighting of Tanker in Trouble

  1. #1

    Default Possible Sighting of Tanker in Trouble

    I would respectfully request that you remove the photos from your site of the tanker.
    It may not be the one involved in the tragic incident in the firth yesterday however you were quick enough to remove an allegation of wrongdoing behind the Comm in Thurso.
    The photos submitted may have been done with the best of intentions but are still rather ghoulish .
    decorum please

    I take it you have also requested the BBC to remove the "ghoulish" photo on their site which would seem to definitely be the same tanker.
    Animals I like, people I tolerate.

    Default Tanker

    According to the sender the times are correct for it to have been the same tanker. Main point was to show what the weather was like at the time of the problem.

    With respect VV, the tanker is 'news' the events you mention were 'speculation' - two entirely different things.

    Do you want:
    All pictures of the tanker on TV removed
    All pictures of the Tanker in the press removed
    All pictures/film of aftermath of distasters removed
    All pictures/film of car crashes removed
    All pictures/film of houses where tragedies have occurred removed
    and so on, and so on, and so on!!

    Seems to me that we will not have much info on events and certainly none more than written reports.

    After all people whose family members are involved in tragedies more often than not want to visit the spot and take the press with them.
