'Live: Deaths in stampede' so read the headlines in The Guardian bringing the notion of a 'Live' broadcast about death into disrepute. If that makes sense, which it probably doesn't, but I hope you get the gist.
It appears to me that there is nearly always some incident during the pilgrimage to Mecca that results in deaths. You would have thought that everyone would have learnt this by now, and given it's religious significance, surely they would want to avoid portraying it as an uncaring occasion.
The VW boss has fallen on his sword in relation to the emissions scandal. I'm not sure how dodgy the deed was, but it looks to be up there with other big ones with plenty of expensive lawyers set to cash in. Pity I sold my Passat.
