Ban TOI for one day on November 19th. we can go without toilet paper for one day.
[–]GravitationalWaveKarnataka 10 points11 points12 points  (0 children)
True or not, some banks now are catering separately to senior citizens and differently abled. Also some mannered queues are considerate and allow the elderly to skip ahead.
[–]LyingPOS 6 points7 points8 points  (1 child)
It should be mandatory to print apology letter at the exact same place the article was printed and using the same amount of space, for 2 or more days.

Motherfuck ! What stops them to lie about shit on front page and apologize the next day on page 7.
[–]ppatra 7 points8 points9 points  (0 children)
Damn! time to get a spectacle for me.
[–]GiantAlien5TinyHeadsUniverse 6 points7 points8 points  (1 child)
I think the retraction is only about the bank outside which he died. Not about the whole news itself. He might have died in some other bank. Since they didn't retract the rest of the news, I'm assuming they stand by it.
[–]second_time_Telangana 3 points4 points5 points  (0 children)
A quick google search revealed multiple news sources reporting that he died near an SBI branch.
[–]ca_hu_bhai 1 point2 points3 points  (0 children)
Ah. Just newspaper being newspaper. I have never seen any newspaper even local ones, issuing correction / Apology on the front or even on the second page.
[–]ramanujam 1 point2 points3 points  (0 children)
Lie Big, Retract small
[–]Abzone7n 1 point2 points3 points  (0 children)
Fucking bitches.
[–]second_time_Telangana 0 points1 point2 points  (11 children)
Honest question: Why the frown?
I understand we all hate TOI to the core, but the error is that the person did not die near HSBC bank as it was reported the day earlier. They corrected it by saying they reported false info. Was there any blame on HSBC in the original article?
[–]Aimless_Drifter 1 point2 points3 points  (10 children)
Might be HDFC instead of HSBC. A person died still. Does it matter which bank he died in front of?
[–]second_time_Telangana 3 points4 points5 points  (9 children)
It does not matter. But my question is why is this circlebashing of TOI over this matter? TOI does a lot of shit that warrants bashing, but I don't get the logic in this thread.
[–]moojo 1 point2 points3 points  (8 children)
The original report was on Page 2 and I am assuming with bold title, so people read in bold that a guy died near HSBC ATM while no one is going to read the small apology on Page 7.
[–]MyselfWalrus 1 point2 points3 points  (7 children)
How does it matter? Nobody in their right senses will blame HSBC or HDFC or SBI for it. The blood is clearly on Modi's hands.
[–]MyselfWalrus 0 points1 point2 points  (3 children)
Nobody dies from standing in line, but standing line compounds what other problems they have causing them to die.
[–]second_time_Telangana 1 point2 points3 points  (2 children)
Dude, read the article - he was not even in the line. He was near an SBI bank when he collapsed.
but standing line compounds what other problems they have causing them to die.
With that logic, even oxygen is harmful for us.
Edit: He was indeed in the bank.
[–]MyselfWalrus 1 point2 points3 points  (1 child)
He may have been tense about it? How the hell will anyone know?
[–]second_time_Telangana 0 points1 point2 points  (0 children)
Agree. No one will ever know.
[–]moojo 0 points1 point2 points  (1 child)
That is not the point, the point is if the report is wrong then the apology should be given equal treatment, it should not be buried deep down.
[–]MyselfWalrus 0 points1 point2 points  (0 children)
Let's hope Modiji bans TOI for 1 day like they did with NDTV and then get their ass kicked when TOI takes them to court.
[–]phone_throw12Odisha 0 points1 point2 points  (0 children)
"Yes, The Senior Citizen died while standing in an ATM queue. One of the paper reported it as HSBC branch, which was wrong. It was near Milan East Branch of State Bank of India. "

will the government issue an apology for the inconvenience caused?
