Hollywood Domination Chapter 462: Truth and lies (Part 1)

"Hahaha——you are so humorous! Really, let me laugh again—" At the scene full of laughter, Conan O'Brien laughed a few more times, and then his expression changed, " So, Chris! Next I may have to ask you a very sensitive question - we all know that a friend of yours and mine, Jennifer Jefferson, had a very unfortunate accident."

"Yes——" Sitting next to Conan, Chris, who was still smiling just now, also changed his expression, and he said in a low voice. "And to bring it up on such a hilarious show is—you've got to let me deal with my emotions, Conan."

"Oh, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, do I need to provide you with tissues, Chris, are you going to cry?" The audience first made a sympathetic sound of 'woo', but then couldn't help it under Conan's artificial care He chuckled lightly, "If you want to cry, it's cruel, but——"

Conan snapped his fingers and directed the camera to get closer to Chris, and amidst chuckles and unstoppable sighs, Chris shook his head, and he said angrily, "No, I don't want to cry, it was of course a very unfortunate accident, but Jennifer is a very strong girl and she will get through it, I believe that, and the doctor is optimistic about the condition - just that, ok , it's so infuriating that it's everywhere, I mean, when Jennifer is lying there fighting that stalker, the TV media is flooding the news, questioning everything about her, it's As if he's not dead - you know what I mean, the ethos that stalker represents is not dead, whether the email is real or not, the vile spirit that consumes celebrities because they're talented and famous ——"

"Oh, a painful blow," Conan said, rubbing his face and grinning as if he had been hit hard, "but Conan Xiu never talked about this news-of course we mentioned it, but it's worth it It is worth mentioning that I used a mocking attitude, and Jon Stewart - in this matter, our talk show is still very persistent."

His way of dividing camps while echoing Chris, and taking the moral high ground made the audience chuckle again, and Chris smiled angrily, "OK, so we should blame the news show I think it’s the crowd’s spectatorship that should be punished—what are you kidding, people are not out of danger yet, but what you care about are those fabricated rumors and scandals, just because they cater to you voyeurism? Bullsh*t! Just because of you guys, the paparazzi will go too far every time, rummaging through trash cans to follow hackers, it is a hotbed of illegal behavior, including watching this show now just want to hear I'm talking about this because you people who have already doubted j.j, bullsh*t, ok? f**kyou! You have no right to care about this matter, it's your right to care whether o.j killed his wife or not, but It’s not your right to care about his private life, ok? All the paparazzi who want to talk to me about this issue get away from me, you don’t deserve to stand with me as human beings at all!”

When he got more and more angry, and even obviously lost control, when he stood up and gestured his **** to the screen, Conan also applauded vigorously, and even gestured his **** with some exaggeration, which also caused exclamation from the audience In addition to the sound, there were some uncontrollable laughter. However, real rough scenes are not allowed on the nbc screen. Chris's swear words and middle fingers were all processed, leaving only mosaics and 'beep' sounds .

"I totally understand! Dude, I understand exactly what you mean!" Conan also unbuttoned two buttons, and made a look of righteous indignation, "It's like Andy had a car accident in front of the house once, the airbag It popped up—really, Andy? You're leaning on the airbag, trying to figure out how to call 911, and a paparazzi approaches you—"

His good friend, also the sidekick Andy Richard in the show, made a demented look, as if he had just been hit, and was a little shocked, while Conan imitated the paparazzi and asked in a shrill voice, " Mr. Richard, that magazine under your ass—is that Playboy?"

Amidst the audience's laughter, Chris also laughed. He sat back on the sofa, took a sip of water, and combed the bangs that had slipped because of being too excited just now. After screaming, Conan continued, "But back to this incident, I think I have to speak to nbc news, in fact-if you haven't noticed, this whole thing should start with "ws "The first public report was the starting point. Before that, this was just another very common rumor letter incident. In this way, our mailbox can receive more than 80 emails a day-"

Chris interrupted him in surprise, "really?"

His expression provoked a burst of laughter, and Conan nodded exaggeratedly, "Sometimes even hundreds, Chris, I won't say how many of them are about you-mostly Of course, these emails did not have the opportunity to be on the program, so it is impossible to talk about gaining public attention. It is precisely because Fox News first reported this letter that it became a hot news, including the exposure of the content of the follow-up letter. Because it was on TV after all—"

"And you mean, it's because Fox News didn't do their job right?" Chris asked with a slight frown, "They're the paparazzi who caused trouble?"

"Well——" Conan spread his hands, "At least they did broadcast a piece of news that shouldn't be on the TV news because of the attention."

"I see what you mean..." Chris showed a contemplative expression, and after a while, he slapped the armrest of the sofa dramatically, leading the audience to shout rhythmically, "ws! ws! ws ——"

Amidst the roar of laughter from the audience, Conan showed a sly smile, as if he should feel sorry for it, but for some reason he was happy to see it happen. The audience shouted together, "wsws——"

#

"In less than 24 hours after last night's episode of The Conan O'Brien Show, #ws# has become a trending hashtag on Twitter and, if we're exaggerating enough, it's a full blown The celebrity retweeting conference is not too much. Almost as long as it is a movie star with Twitter, there are many celebrities in the TV industry who retweeted this tweet. The heaviest protester may still be State Assemblyman George Andro -- he talked about it in a recent TV interview, so let's get to the story --"

"Yes, regarding the protests led by Chris Hanks, I am on the side of the stars. The recent public opinion direction makes me feel very uncomfortable. American citizens of conscience and common sense share the same feelings, as they explore on Conan, a humorous and insightful talk show, when we are faced with more serious issues to discuss: Jenny At a time when the health stalker crimes of Ephraim and how we can prevent similar accidents from happening--the media misleads by reporting a story that shouldn't be in the news, making all these healthy concerns Distorted into a voyeuristic show, a boring, unsubstantiated suspicion aimed at low taste, but blurred the real focus. What's more frightening is that the Fox show conveyed a kind of cryptic logic— —Don’t care about the prisoner’s background, and instead care about the victim’s stain, as if implying to everyone, ‘Jennifer suffered like this because of doing these things, and the stalker herself is justifiable’. This kind of Ideas are very dangerous and very evil, and I hold Fox News responsible for it."

"Do you think the fertile ground for this 'victim blaming' is the audience's insecurities, I mean, it could be compared to a shooting, it's so common and random it's going to leave the audience in the After receiving the news, there is a strong panic, fearing that they will become a victim too, so they are more inclined to ingest this kind of 'victim guilty' news, which makes them feel safe because the victim is doing something wrong for them. Behavior pays a price, and audiences who do not share their characteristics can gain a sense of security.”

"That's a good analogy, it's like a school shooting, every parent wishes it didn't happen in their school, so if we make up something that happened Because, it might give parents some false sense of security, but that doesn't solve the problem, does it? It does so only if we all have no choice but to face it; Only by modifying the gun policy can we avoid the possibility of this happening, and before that, everyone is actually in potential danger.”

“And you think that in this case, Fox News, and all the news columns that follow suit, have done one thing, which is to suggest that there is a backstory to the school shooting.”

"Yes, you can argue that you are just reporting the news, and you also emphasized that this is just a leaking letter without public content, but this insinuation itself is a betrayal of ethics. In order to cater to the audience, you gave up What’s more frightening about my conduct as a news program is that it implies a hidden contempt for the stars—on the shooting case, if there is no solid evidence, the news program will never do this kind of report.”

"Yes, but stars are different."

"Yes, celebrities are different. Everyone seems to agree that after becoming a celebrity, you have lost the most basic human rights, that is, the right to be respected in times of crisis. This is not a simple matter of who dates whom. Scandal, it's a serious criminal case, what would Jennifer think if she was conscious now instead of unconscious? So I don't think there's actually enough public attention on this right now - it's a serious Malpractice and unethical on-air accident involving all news programs, this is an abusive journalistic violence, and saddest of all, we don't realize until Jennifer's friend speaks out on a talk show This, this is the chronic disease of this society, and I hope that through my revival policy—"

Turn off the TV with a bang, Amanda stared at the TV screen for a while, and tried to get the phone a few times, but put down her hands in the middle: these TV programs certainly made her watch, There is a feeling of speaking out from the heart and criticizing the current situation, but unfortunately, the news did not answer whether the letter is true or not. Of course, this is also reasonable. After all, Chris has nothing to do with these rumors, and it cannot be left to him. Came to endorse 'Jonnifer', but... this still left her with a lingering haze in her heart. They all kept saying that it was wrong to guess whether it was true or false, and it was the person who sent the letter (I don’t know if it was the stalker himself) I'm leading the way, but Amanda still can't think about it, if... Even if it's just in case, if what the letter says is true...

Shaking her head preoccupied, she stood up and went to the study, turned on the computer, and skillfully logged into Jennifer's fan forum: Although it is very chaotic here, there are new news and new people arriving every day, management The team members are not as diligent as before, which makes the order not very good, but there is no doubt that it is still the best choice to get news about Jennifer. There is a sticky post that updates the summary of comments from all parties every day, which is very helpful to Amanda. After all, Amanda, who is already a middle-aged man, is somewhat at a loss for all kinds of social media. Twitter, kinstgram... She can barely keep up with the first two software, but when the third one begins , what tupchat, is completely beyond the scope of her ability, and she can't find the celebrity accounts walking on these websites. Fortunately, this post can help her keep up with the progress. Amanda now comes almost every day After watching it several times, I look forward to the appearance of Oscar or Josh Cesare and others.

However, unlike Chris, who has already started the promotional period because a new film will be released on Valentine's Day next year, Josh is not currently filming, nor is he in the promotional period, and his social media has been in a zombie state for a long time. Cesare doesn't have social media at all, and it is said that he is also rushing about Jennifer's illness, so Amanda also knows that her thoughts are a bit unrealistic, but she still can't help the urge to post, just had lunch and endured it. I couldn't stop sitting in front of the computer.

"Ah—" she scrolled to the bottom of the main post and glanced, she sat up straight, "Josh has spoken!"

Quickly clicked on the latest video - Amanda has never hated buffering so much - fortunately, the network is good today, but after waiting for just a few seconds, she saw Josh Blanche's familiar melancholy face ——This is a selfie video, Josh seems to be at home, and he is not in a high mood. "Hey guys, sorry for the frustrating update after so long - but I really feel compelled to say something about the recent rumors...it's been a really frustrating thing , At such a moment, I have to refute such nonsense, and I even feel that just talking about it is an insult to me and Jennifer, our beautiful past..."

Josh paused, a complex expression flashed across his face, as if he remembered Jennifer and his sweet past, and the bleak reality of the present, he sighed, and continued, "But because This has affected many of our mutual friends, those behind-the-scenes staff, including the makeup artist who has worked with Jennifer many times, Claudia, who is also said to be my 'real girlfriend'."

He made a double quotation mark and continued to say sincerely, "She has now become a sign of the media's stalking and interception, and she has been severely bullied online. There are also Jennifer's assistant Mary Effie. The girls we have a common connection with have all been smeared by this outrageous rumor letter which has affected their families - yes Claudia and Marie both have families - so I implore everyone not to believe such ridiculous rumors ——"

"Huh..." Let out a long breath, Amanda was relieved this time, she even had a feeling of being 'saved' and at the same time, she couldn't help feeling a little bit about Josh Sorry: that handsome face with hidden melancholy has successfully conveyed her depressed and helpless mood to the bottom of Amanda's heart, making her realize that maybe it is because there are too many unsteady people like her that Josh has to let go One such video.

"It's all Fox News' fault..." Although before "Conan Show", Amanda never knew that Fox News was the first column to report the news, but this did not prevent her from blaming the whole thing. On the other side's head, she muttered, and opened her own Twitter—after much hesitation, she still entered the most popular hashtag #ws#—for her, even after being blocked, **** this Words are still not so easy to say.

'You're so depraved, so evil, you deserve to be judged, Fox News' - the highly religious tweet was aggregated into the frenzy of web data in seconds and became One of the tens of thousands of #ws# tweets, it made the news, and became the subject of many critics and anchors: "This mighty news purification campaign has aroused shocking news on Twitter. Lang, Jennifer Jefferson's fans seem to have completely vented their anger about being attacked by their idol through this channel. Fox News reported this baseless rumor before Jennifer woke up from a coma This click pierced people's bottom line and aroused the same hatred among celebrities. This can be said to be similar to the 99% movement on Wall Street, and it is the voice of the oppressed 99% of the media—"

"I don't know how to say it, because after all, like Josh said, j.j is really in a difficult stage right now and needs everyone's support, even talking about it is a failure. But I really I wanted to say—" A plump young woman who was obviously pregnant shook her head and laughed helplessly, "Everyone, look at me, then look at Jennifer, and then look at the "Pirates of the Caribbean" period Jennifer, say me and Josh are a couple, seriously? Are you serious?"

She made a gesture to the paparazzi who followed in the camera, which caused a lot of laughter, "So please, don't follow me--and make sure to mosaic the children's faces--"

"Claudia King, who was involved in the rumor letter, spoke out, denying her love song with Josh, saying that the rumors are pure nonsense. King was a makeup artist for many movies, personally The make-up business is in full swing—"

"Fox News hastily sent out news about an anonymous letter without confirmation, which has had an extremely bad impact on the public opinion environment." In the solemn press conference hall, wearing a black suit The middle-aged man said carefully, "I have also set a bad example for my colleagues, and even affected the emotions of the victims and their families. This incident is entirely due to my lack of professionalism, and I can only express my sincere apologies."

Amidst the non-stop clicking sound, he paused for a moment before continuing, "I decided to resign as a producer next month as an apology. It turns out that I am not qualified to be a news column producer. I would also like to apologize to my colleagues, anchor Shepard Smith..."

"Fox Channel recently responded to the outside noise and held a press conference to apologize. "Fox News" producer Larry Dawson will take the blame and resign."

"The Secretary of State expressed concern about this, 'I believe that what Jennifer needs most right now is a quiet environment to rest, and I also think that the media needs to use its great power for better, which is what we said With great power comes great responsibility'."

"The blog was hacked more than forty times in three days, and thousands of comments were made. Perez Hilton apologized for his actions, 'I didn't know that this incident would lead to such serious consequences. Jefferson and the rest of the people mentioned in the letter apologized and will disclose the information more carefully in the future'”

"Ps photos ran amok leaking emails? Starting from the 'rumor letters', the emails of major news columns have been overwhelmed. Letters claiming to be the murderer of Shef Cole have become a mainstream, all kinds of Realistic PS photos make mailbox administrators fall into a psychological shadow, and virus packages are also very common. In such a wave of anonymous emails, major columns have to temporarily close mailboxes and only accept whitelist emails.”

"Oscar's voice? The chairman of the American Academy of Film and Arts and Sciences Hawke Keqi said, 'Oscar has never been and cannot be a fixed phenomenon', and was asked whether this year's Jennifer's entry "Life Journey" will be avoided Hawke said, "This year's entries will be treated fairly, and the Oscars will not be affected by outside rumors." However, according to expert analysis, after the internal rumors, Jennifer Jefferson's prospects for the Olympics this year are still It will be relatively dim..."

It only took three days from the questioning of "is Jennifer a saint or a devil" to the present reflection and apology. This time, the rapid linkage between the media and Internet public opinion surprised many netizens. This piece of news was bombarding, and within a few days, the tide of public opinion was completely reversed, and this also caused people on the Internet to be called upon by their favorite stars, or to be filled with righteous indignation at what happened to Jennifer. , or the protesters who were fans of Jennifer felt a sincere sense of joy and accomplishment. The cute picture of the dwarf, "We are all dwarves protecting the princess" "This is the victory of the dwarves"!

However, although the public has turned to the side of justice in the anonymous letter, there are still some discordant voices on the Internet—or these discordant voices are fed back to the Internet from reality. After all, it is not Everyone searches for relevant news on the Internet, but the information they come into contact with in reality cannot explain the ins and outs of the overall incident.

"To be honest, they and I were about to quarrel, but they still insisted on believing the content of that letter, and called everything after that crisis public relations-as if they didn't just learn this word But this really frustrates me, honestly, don't know how to convince this group of stubborn small town moms, hope you guys can help me, I showed them a lot of video evidence, but they still refuse to believe, They would rather believe the rumors going around - it is said that during the time when Jennifer was locked up by the stalker, they were making a confession tape. Jennifer angered the judge..."

After reading this post, Judy raised her eyebrows and let go of the mouse. "Are there many similar posts?"

"This is the most concentrated negative feedback so far - of course, the wording varies, but this is the most typical post, you know, all influenced by "People", they mentioned this rumor last week, and then! All those small town moms are starting to believe the confession tapes exist," Jim sent a document to Judy's screen, "Look at the report, and the second negative feedback takes time to resolve - they're still inclined to believe it The breaking news letter is not hype, and the follow-up letters will contain real evidence, so we are still waiting for the time node of "one week". Considering the mentality during the waiting period, only a small number of people will speak out, so it can be believed, although Now there is almost no voice in the mainstream public opinion, and the number of this group of people is not too small.”

"These are the most concentrated two types of negative feedback, oh, and there is a third type, which thinks that the hospital rarely discloses Jennifer's situation..." Judy flipped through the report, ignoring those who were obviously ridiculous. There are not many items, she thought for a while, "Actually, whether it is the first category or the second category, this reflects a pain point of the masses - what happened during the half hour when Jennifer was kidnapped , People are curious, if this demand cannot be met by the government, they will definitely believe in rumors, no matter how absurd, as long as there is the most basic logic, there will be people eager to listen and absorb—"

"So how do we deal with this?" Jim asked, looking at Judy, "Looks like you think it's still reversible-God knows, I've listed it as an irreparable loss I mean, unless you can get the authorities to tell the truth—and that, unfortunately, actually fits very well with this rumor, and in that sense, People isn’t actually telling a lie— —”

"Since it is going to be done, of course it must be perfect." Judy said, and she closed the ipad in front of her with a snap. "Robert paid for it, and he needs a Jennifer with no loss in commercial value, and even an upside, so - stand up, Jim boy, we have a little work to do."

She and Jim walked to the door of the temporary office together, and Jim followed Judy all the way, asking constantly, "What are you going to ask me to do? What are you going to do?"

"You're in charge of that computer," Judy said, turning on her phone and checking the time, "and I—I'm in charge of that blank time..."
