Harry Potter’s Natural Villain Chapter 136: The counterattack of the Daily Prophet
On the night when Peter Pettigrew appeared, all the media in the wizarding world wanted to smell the **** sharks. Fudge even found the "Daily Prophet" in advance, hoping that they would be able to publicize, and they too They did a lot of hard work, and they sent the reporter from Hogwarts that night.
But in the end they only mentioned it in the newspaper the next day.
Almost no one goes into the reasons for this. They are just keen to belittle the newspaper with the highest circulation. They think that the editor in charge may have had his brain flooded, and Fudge is also very upset. Why was he so diligent and should be positive in the first place. The chain is dropped when propaganda.
At the same time, many tabloids even thought they had a chance.
But I don’t know, this is the beginning of my being annexed.
If the whole environment is deceived, it might be worse than the other, you see, isn't that newspaper also spared? This is the habitual thinking of all people.
But what if there is a media outlet that keeps it sober?
Unfortunately, the Daily Prophet is the only survivor.
As early as during the Christmas holidays, Lucius directly approached the top management of the Daily Prophet and reached an agreement. The method of suppressing and then raising can achieve great results at any time.
Even Rita Skeeter, who is extremely fond of being a demon, received a letter specifically aimed at her. There was no other content on it, but she was asked to be silent for a while, at least for this period of time. Here, she can’t write strange words with her shorthand quill pen.
If there are signs of something wrong, unfortunately, there may be one more defendant in the Wizarding Court’s trial seat, who came to power because of the illegal unregistered Animagus.
Maybe many charges of wiretapping will be added, and Rita Skeeter has used her Animagus to obtain information.
To the effect, this woman can only choose to bow her head.
What's more, she now has an excellent opportunity, and now is the time to need her.
The long silence will drive her crazy, she needs to talk, and use her magical and magical quill to vent her previous depression fanatically.
Thinking about it, I feel excited. All the media in the wizarding world are played around by a traitor who cheats the world. This is a ironic thing. These days, she has not been ridiculed by those nasty younger generations. Today is the other way around. Face opportunity.
The flamboyant and sensational text spewed out from under her quill, turning into the report that Hermione was seeing now.
"This is the most outstanding young man I have ever seen. He has an elegant manner and a proper conversation. He perfectly demonstrates the good upbringing under the influence of his family." Rita Skeeter wrote in all compliments, and the lines were full of words. It's a love of beauty.
Are you kidding? How dare she not please the shareholder's heir, let alone that person didn't know how to get her handle.
At that time, Lucius paid a secret and a certain amount of wealth, and became one of the current shareholders of the Daily Prophet.
With this opportunity, the "Daily Prophet" not only received a huge investment, but also raised its reputation once again. Everyone was drunk and I was alone, and it was able to maintain the status of a news media even when the public was incited. Ethics is so precious, those newspapers that were deceived and turned around are now a joke.
These are small losers.
There is no doubt that the big loser, except for the petty dwarf Peter in the East Window incident, that is Cornelius Fudge.
This big Oolong completely dealt a devastating blow to his reputation, and the public opinion that was only slightly restored by Peter Pettigrew fell into the abyss.
I wronged an innocent person for twelve years, and finally treated a shameful traitor as a guest. Is this the Minister of Magic in this term?
Fudge can only conduct pale public relations, saying that the person in power at the time was not him, and he was not the cause of the grievances.
Unfortunately, that's all that can be done.
Only then did he realize that he might have been pitted by that kid, but this dumb guy could only swallow it and lift the table to spread everything out?
Someone has to believe it.
Not to mention that Malfoy had completely picked himself out.
The front page of the Daily Prophet says:
One person, not falling twice in the same place, this sentence is perfect for Draco Malfoy, the cunning petty dwarf Peter never thought that his foolproof Imperius curse would fail. Many people don’t know that when this boy was in his second grade, he made a big mistake and almost embarrassed Hogwarts. If readers are interested, they can order my latest work..."
Rita Skeeter’s pen was turned, and the following text reads like this: "At this time, Peter Pettigrew’s unsound knowledge is revealed. He is learning the sinful unforgivable curse. At the time, I may have forgotten the fact that the effectiveness of the Imperius Curse will slowly diminish as the number of uses increases, and unfortunately, he only succeeded in casting the spell on Draco Malfoy once. This student of even used tricks to lead him into a trap."
" Peter Pettigrew, who used the Imperius Curse, was too overwhelmed. He thought he would be the first to do it first~ IndoMTL.com~ After capturing Sirius Black, he was relieved. This is his biggest failure, and he will always do it. I never thought that my Imperius Curse would fail in front of a student."
"He would never have thought that even earlier, Sirius Black sent us a letter explaining all this. Interested readers can wait and watch it on the back page..."
"At first, our Daily Prophet was skeptical of this letter, but out of caution, and the mentality of believing it is better than untrustworthy, we sent our professional reporters to visit Investigation, after all, if Thaksin’s letter is true, then this may be the biggest unjust case in the history of the wizarding world."
"Then we got a lot of clues. Some clues are very easy to get. For example, Sirius Black was thrown into Azkaban without trial. He never confessed guilt in person. It seems that it is a sign that he has no regrets, but now it seems that there is a reasonable explanation..."
"Our reporter also deliberately went to interview the Auror who participated in the arrests that year. Only those who have experienced it have the right to speak. Their answers are surprisingly consistent: "I didn't see Black committing a crime with my own eyes, but The superior asked us to arrest him, and we could only obey the order. "
"I was even ready to sacrifice at the time." This was one of the Auror's words, "but Sirius did not resist our capture at the time. We did not even use a spell. He just grabbed it."
"At that time, we only felt that it was a good thing not to sacrifice, but the more time passed, the more it felt unreasonable."
"If he was truly loyal to the mysterious man, he could have another battle with us. I am pretty sure that he had the ability to fight back at the time." These were the words of another Auror at the time.
