1. I believe that if Titanic sank somewhere in the Atlantic Ocean, someone should call for
help via a wireless telegraph. The message is then sent to any nearby ship, but it takes
time to receive it. This could be one of the reasons why there are so many survivors
who can provide even more accurate information on the disaster. Then news of the
incident traveled quickly through a newspaper and to other locations.
2. If the Titanic sinks in today's generation, the tragedy may be broadcast live on the
internet or through broadcasting media to a large audience. They could be a direct
rescue that saves many lives. They will also be able to obtain more precise details
regarding the tragedy.

accurate information so that people can make informed judgments and participate in
