The Cowardice of Captain Francesco Schettino

There's an editorial at Toronto's Globe and Mail.

And see the Los Angeles Times, "Recording in cruise ship disaster casts captain in bad light."


Also, at London's Daily Mail, "Forget women and children first. Burly crew men led the race for the lifeboats."

And at National Review, "In the Italian cruise-ship disaster, another death knell for the age of chivalry."

UPDATE: At New York Times, "Captain of Stricken Vessel Says He Fell Overboard in Passenger Panic."

Shameful! This so-called captain belongs in jail, with his yellow-bellied officers.
