Chapter 554： Notorious

ads_wz_txt;

The 554 infamous "Witch Trial" and "Witch Tide" not only unexpectedly increased the sales of "nearly famous", but also focused the focus of the entire society on the social responsibilities of the news media. With the exception of the "New York Post", which did not see clearly the situation and took a wrong step, all other media are constantly attacking the "National Inquirer" and other gossip tabloids for their shameful acts of fabricating facts for the benefit of the news.

The "National Inquirer" is simply embarrassed and precarious in the "Witch Trial" crusade against the "wave" launched by Hugo. All the media colleagues have concentrated their firepower and asked the "National Inquirer" together. The gunfire made the supermarket gossip tabloid miserable.

Although the National Inquirer is the best-selling supermarket gossip tabloid in the U.S., their sales volume is not a big one compared to the real national newspapers. This time it’s not for the U.S. sales. The top ten "New York Post" foolishly couldn't see the situation clearly and stood on the opposite side of Hugo, sharing a lot of attacks for the "National Inquirer", and Anthony Bond Stewart almost thought that the "National Inquirer" was about to disappear.

You should know that the "'witch's trial" is almost an all-round blow to all the capabilities of a news media, and it can even be said to strongly question the value of the news media's existence. This is not something that the "National Inquirer" can afford, or even that of any news media. This is why all news media have united and "fired in unison."

This is not because the news media are united, nor is it because the news media found themselves under Hugo’s accusations, but they know very well that the supreme "freedom of speech" granted to the news media by society and the law is because they believe that the media can Fulfilling the pursuit of truth and believing that the media can replace the masses in supervising the normal operation of society, so they must not wear the big hat of "witch trials" on their heads, otherwise the news media will be self-destructive.

Therefore, the Michael Jackson case has not been resolved, and the days of the National Inquirer and the New York Post cannot be resolved. They have long been riddled with problems.

After the live TV broadcast ended, the branches of the two newspapers in New York, Los Angeles, Chicago and other big cities were attacked by ordinary people. At the beginning, they were just demonstrations to strongly protest against the newspaper’s irresponsible behavior. But then things began to escalate gradually.

All the news media in the United States united and opened fire on the "New York iZl;-te" and the "National Inquirer", and these two newspapers have become poor scapegoats, taking the responsibility of all the media who contributed to the "wave". The anger of ordinary people across America.

You know, in this era when the Internet is still underdeveloped, people understand the world through news media. Television, radio, and print media are the only means for people to understand the world. Unlike in the 21st century, blogs, The emergence of Weibo and social networking has made everyone in every corner of the world a news source, greatly enriching people's ways to understand the world. In this era, news media is the only means.

But if all the news media unite to "deceive" the people and seek benefits for the media's own interests under the banner of "freedom of speech," then this is harming the interests of the entire society. Just like the Rodney King incident, the media deceived the world, allowed Rodney King to escape the law, and even triggered racial struggles. All people are led by the news media like fools. This is absolutely not allowed. !

The follow-up effects of the Rodney King incident have not yet completely dissipated. Now the news media is facing accusations of "'Witch Trials", which almost set the entire society back three centuries, and the anger of the people naturally broke through the horizon. .

The black people think that Michael Jackson’s cup is a nightmare of the Rodney King incident; since people think they have been fooled by the news media again, they have once again become the target of black attacks; Latino, Asian Minorities such as, European immigrants believe that the living space of socially disadvantaged groups like them has been further compressed, and the "women's trial" of the news media is aimed at them...

This irresistible anger was vented to the "New York Post" and the "National Inquirer" to their heart's content.

The demonstration quickly escalated into physical conflict. First, rotten vegetables, foul-smelling trash were thrown at the newspaper building, and endless curses were overwhelming. Then the first violent clash broke out in Houston, with dagger-named black demonstrators trying to break through the blockade. Line, throwing gasoline bottles at the branch of the "New York Post" was stopped by the local police in time, but the gasoline bottles still exploded on the street corner, causing minor injuries to three people. Although the injury was controlled, the anger of the people was completely detonated by this incident.

A small-scale urban riot broke out in Detroit. The fire was centered on the "National Inquirer" newspaper building. Eleven people were slightly injured and the whole incident was once again escalated.

Obviously, the "Witch Trial" incident has truly risen to the level of social events. News media is an indispensable link in people's lives, and now this link deceives itself, which also detonated the vulnerability of the American people in the post-economic crisis era. The guardian.

However, these situations are only a minority after all. At present, only Houston and Detroit have violent incidents. Other cities are only limited to the stage of demonstrations and protests, so this is for the "New York Post" and the "National Inquirer". It's not too serious, the really serious situation is yet to come.

Large supermarket chains such as Wal-Mart intend to temporarily remove the "National Inquirer" from the counter. Although it is only "temporarily", this is tantamount to cutting off the main survival platform of supermarket gossip tabloids; subsequently, the "New York Post" and "National Inquirer" Top sponsors have stated that they must temporarily withdraw their advertisements in newspapers, which is tantamount to cutting off the newspaper's most important source of income.

These circumstances made the "National Inquirer" and "New York Post" be devastated. They don't know how long this "wave of "witch trials" will last. This is also their number one. The second hope is that Michael Jackson’s case will end soon. No matter what the outcome is, I only hope that it will end soon. In this way, the "Witch Trial" will end as soon as possible, otherwise, they are not sure how long this survival crisis will last.

Now even the big newspapers like "New York izil; -te" are already overwhelmed, and the "National Inquirer" has almost disappeared. "Mr. Bond" Anthony Stewart can only hide in himself for the past week. In his apartment, he didn’t dare to come out. Don’t talk about going to interview the news. Even when he went to the supermarket or convenience store, he felt that someone was peeping at him, and the sharp-edged eyes were shooting from all directions. 'Come here, as if people all over the world are shouting and screaming at him. Every time I go out, it seems to be a dance on the tip of a knife, making him walk on thin ice. He now knows what is really notoriety.

In fact, Anthony Stewart must be thankful that everyone’s anger is now concentrated on the "New York Post" and the "National Inquirer". After all, this time he mainly accepted the condemnation of the entire society as a news media, so he, the initiator, did not Did not get caught to criticize.

But Anthony knew that once the people began to demand to catch the culprit, the National Inquirer would definitely not push itself out without any hesitation. When that time comes, Anthony will know what the culprit is, and he strongly doubts it. , Those ordinary people will become demons and tear him into countless pieces, and then he will completely disappear in this world.

At this moment, Anthony finally has some understanding of Michael Jackson’s situation. When everyone in society focused their contempt and condemnation on one person, there was no verbal abuse, even if there was no physical contact. The gaze is enough to crush a person, and almost no one can bear this huge pressure on the spirit.

More deadly, Langmeyer and Tracey Jacobs, who instigated all of this behind the scenes, stopped answering his calls. Anthony knew that this was trying to separate the relationship. Thinking about it in another way, Anthony will make the same choice as Ron and Tracy, but when he becomes the object of being abandoned, Anthony will not feel so comfortable.

"Bang Bang Bang" home fl4 special-came a strong knock on the'door', but the sound seemed to hit Anthony's'chest' directly, which made Anthony jump up all over, he seemed to be Frightened bird, a little bit of wind and grass will make him nervous.

"Bond, Bond, I know that you are at home, I want to interview you..." The voice from the'door' made Anthony, who was on tiptoe ready to go to the cat's eye to see who it was, jumped up, as if he was caught The missile chased and ran, and ran towards the'door' behind his home. UU read and then regardless of whether he was only wearing pajamas, he took a coat and put it on his shoulders and put on slippers. Running wildly outwards.

Now as long as he hears the word "interview", Anthony is very sensitive. He feels that the reporter is like a Godzilla with an open mouth, waiting to devour him at any time.

Anthony ran to his garage in a panic, then hid in the driver's seat, holding his breath like this, quietly waiting for the people at the ‘door’ to leave. Anthony didn't know how long he waited, but he couldn't calm down. He felt as if someone was watching him at any time, which made him panic.

Until Anthony finally couldn't wait any longer, he just sat up without hesitation, then started the car, drove the car out of the garage, and then chose a random direction and ran all the way, he didn't know where he was going. He just wants to leave home, leave the city of Los Angeles, and leave these cannibal demons far away.

All this is like a nightmare. Anthony never wants to experience a nightmare again. He only hopes that the "Witch Trial" wind and wave will end soon, and the Michael Jackson case will end soon, everything. The eyes of attention are almost over.... )
