Tsunami spoof

I am rarely inflamed to such an extent as I was this morning reading this news report. I can laugh with the best of them at sick jokes and politically incorrect 'offerings' but this particular instance is beyond all boundaries of decency and acceptability.

What on earth where these people thinking of and what on earth where those who made and produced the item thinking of??

I'm sorry, but an apology and the offering of a meagre weeks salary by those who made the decision to air this item is not good enough. I am as a rule on the side of the underdog and not in favour of corporate heavy-handedness but in this instance the employer is right. It is easy to apologise after the event and when one's own life is about to be affected.

Crass stupidity and insensitivity of this magnitude is inexcusable and those guilty of it shouldn't be allowed to escape with apologies manufactured doubtless for the purpose of saving their own skins!
