Thank you for accepting your mistake. Your accepting your mistake is great and shows your humility and character.

But their mistake is difficult to forgive because they created fake sense of fear among millions of people who viewed their news when it came out. These millions of people already saw the news so they would not go back to recheck the news to see if it gets corrected. They will actually go and tell their friends and contacts how terrible it is believing in what they saw.

So they admitted their mistake but it is hard to believe that a big media would make such blatant mistake as in using wrong pictures depicting wrong information. Their mistake proliferates the fear mongering that media has been known to do all the time so they may even have done it on purpose. They only retract these things once it's pointed out. I am sure a lot of these fake stuff do not get pointed out.

In any case, thank you for admitting your mistake. It's one person at a time that needs to be aware of these things.
