Original Note:
A lying telegram circulated in the United States assuring that the Titanic was “on its way to Halifax” and that “the passengers (…) are safe”. As a result, due to the race for information, the American press shared fake news without proceeding to verification. https://www.advantagearchives.com/a-titanic-amount-of-misinformation/ https://www.linternaute.com/actualite/histoire/4960208-article/
