Popular Post richard_smith237 Posted April 15, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted April 15, 2022 (edited) Who on earth writes these headlines... Quote Headline: 21 injured in seven vehicle pile up at Lopburi lights - Indian tourists in van that allegedly caused it WRONG - An idiot van driver caused it, one who put the wellbeing of his passengers at risk. Quote From the article: The media suggested the accident was caused by a van carrying a group of Indian tourists. Thats more like it... The headline borders on being racist as if the Indian passengers are to blame. Whoever wrote that headline should be demoted to photo-copy boy (person).

Popular Post Wuvu2 Posted April 15, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted April 15, 2022 Banging on the Indian tourists already? How are Indians even remotely implicated in a crappy Thai van drivers screw up? Just last week we heard that Indian tourists were going to bail out the Thai tourism industry. I'm starting to think the Tourism industry has a few more challenges ahead than the government would like to think. 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Errrrmmm, You are the media and you are the ones speculating about it . Was it a journalist thinking to himself "I wonder what caused the accident " and wrote the three things he could think of and reported that as speculation ?
