As for that ocean liner ... Perhaps I should spell it out a little clearer. If I reported that 700 people survived the sinking of RMS Titanic, which is a bald statement of fact, would that satisfy your requirements for newspapers to report only facts?

please explain the point as your post confused me anyway.
I dont know if the 700 is fact or not so I cant answer it directly. The article would have to publish the evidence. It couldnt be alone based on a comment.
