Hard to live this down

The Hindu has apologised for an incredible story it published in its Mumbai edition on October 1,  saying that a video had recorded a  woman dying in the stampede at Elphinstone station being molested by a bystander. The apology said "A perusal of the clip does not warrant such a conclusion." It admitted that it was a failure of both reporting and editorial supervision but surely an incredible story like that warranted repeated perusal of the clip before the story was carried?
