A tweet from Copper Lund where he says "They were roasting the shit out of the Titanic in the newspaper right after it sank man. This is not a new development, or a chance to stroke your chin about the dangers of social media."
A series of tweets with various newspaper headlines from 1912 roasting the Titanic for sinking. The first one, from The Evening Star, Washington DC, April 18, 1912, says "The adjective "unsinkable", like the word "fireproof", will be accepted here only in an approximate sense." The second headline, from The Butte Inter-Mountain, Montana, April 22, 1912, reads "At all, the events the scientists seem to agree that icebergs in the path of ocean liners are not conducive to safety". The third headline, from The Chicago Tribune, Illinois, April 23, 1912, has a title saying "In the Steamship Office..." with the text being: "Patron: What can you give me for next Wedsneday's sailing?" "Agent: How about No. 8 on the promenade, deck, starboard, suit you? private dining room, private bath, brass bed, real windows with lace curtains-" "Patron: Never mind that! What kind of seat can you give me in the lifeboat?"
Continuing with the series of headlines mocking the Titanic for sinking, the next one is from the Topeka Daily Capital, Kansas, April 24, 1912, and reads "If you own a life boat right now is a good time to sell it. There is a big demand for life boats and prices have gone up." The next one is from the Jewell County Republican, Kansas, July 5, 1912, and reads "One of the beauties of aviating is that there are no icebergs floating in the sky." The last headline is from The Baltimore Sun, Maryland, May 1, 1912, and says "If the people on the Titanic had known what the poets were going to do to them maybe some of them would not have cared to survive."
A crop of a headline from an unknown newspaper from 1912 saying "It was kind of the Titanic to provide a ball room for the mermaids".
Anyway did ya'll know that in 1912 when the Titanic sank the media was literally casting Vicious Mockery on its corpse with no mercy whatsoever
