A lot of people blamed Captain Smith for the sinking as he ordered the ship to go full speed even though he knew about the ice, but it was the ship's owner Bruce Ismay who influenced him to go full speed. You can't blame the sinking on just one person
the iceberg
Captain Edward John Smith was mildly scapegoated at the British Inquiry after the sinking of Titanic but it was a matter of convenience to shift some blame to the dead guy.
Because people thought if he was still on the radio he would have heard Titanic's distress call he would have told the captain and turn their direction to the Titanic and save everybody.
Because Wilson Wang said so.
1. He is to blame because he ignored 7 iceberg warnings. 2. He is to blame because he did not fill all of the life boats. 3. He is to blame because he sped up the ship when it was misty.
In April 1912, as it was happening (the Titanic crew were able to send out an SOS, which was received by nearby ships).
no they were not to blame
The constructors were to blame. They did not correctly build the hull correctly. The titanic sunk because it hit an iceburg and sprung a leak.

Well, the captain was not at blame for the Titanic sinking it was the guy who was on the lookout deck, and was in charge of seeing ahead to tell the captain. He forgot his binoculars therefore when the big iceberg came he did not see it soon enough. But when he did she it and he tried to warn the captain, it was to late
there is no real answer to who caused the titanic but some people said it was Bruce ismay and others said it was the captain and others say it was the ship builders.
