Chapter 86 This is the Internet

On the second night of the fight between Zheng Ye and Stephenson, shortly after Yun Chen came out of Stephenson's ward, a piece of news suddenly appeared in the news section:
The fight incident was reversed, and Stephenson came out to apologize!

Stephenson said on his social media: The fight yesterday was entirely because I was dazzled by anger and offended Zheng Ye. I would like to make a sincere apology to him, and at the same time explain that my physical condition is very serious. Well, he was not seriously injured as the outside world said, please stop smearing me at will.

As soon as this tweet came out, it immediately attracted the attention of many news media and fans.At the same time, this reversal also caused confusion for every news media that had criticized Zheng Ye's "atrocities" before.

The people in charge of the sports section of these news organizations all looked extremely ugly at this time. They were very uncomfortable. They criticized Zheng Ye in the morning, but they turned around just in the evening. This is a sign of their credibility. A huge hit.

Although Stephenson's apology is only one-sided and does not represent the substantive content of the whole matter, a person who has always been regarded as a victim took the initiative to admit his mistakes, but it is enough for people to realize that this matter is definitely not as simple as it seems.

United News Media is such an institution, and they played a very important role in this "Zheng Ye Violence Incident".

They were the first to report this news, and they also attacked Zheng Ye most violently.

They have a large mass base in the area of ​​Los Angeles. Since the "black and white" war in the last century, they have already started reporting on the NBA. It can be said that their history is very long.

For a long time, they have only one purpose in reporting news, and that is truth.

This is also the basis of their survival.

However, in recent years, the sports section of this media has become a little different from before.The current head of sports news was changed only in the last few years. His name is Hoffman Chris, a bald and greasy black uncle in his 40s.

He scoffed at it all from the very beginning when the five Chinese were successful in the draft.

Not for anything else, just because he feels that yellow people have poor physique, poor ability, and are inferior to black people in all aspects.

All along, he has devoted himself to propagating all kinds of news and remarks that are very unfavorable to Yunchen and the five of them.

For example, the last time Yun Chen passed out on the field, he was the first to question whether people of yellow race could adapt to the NBA.

In the recent competition for the No. [-] starting position in the Lakers, he is also a big supporter of Brother Qiu. supporters of black supremacy.

But now, his head is really hurting, and it's still the kind of pain that can't be solved.

As the largest sports news organization in Los Angeles, credibility is very important to them.

The reversal of the "Zheng Ye Violence Incident" has completely reduced the credibility of their news at this time.

In the morning, Hoffman once wrote such a piece of news: the state of etiquette?How is such behavior different from beasts?

This piece of news actually didn't have any substantive content. It was basically all kinds of insults and doubts about Zheng Ye, and there were also some "rhythmic" remarks.

He demanded that the league must severely punish the murderer Zheng Ye, at least to suspend and fine him, and then, most importantly, revoke his right to vote for the All-Star, because in his opinion, such a bad player is not worthy of Such an honor.

Once this article was published, it aroused strong reactions from the people of Los Angeles. Although Stephenson had done many unreliable things before, at least he is now a Lakers player, so it is normal for them to protect this person.

Countless fans who didn't know the truth left messages and comments under the news, and the content was basically the same, that is, to support Hoffman's proposition and severely punish Zheng Ye!

This wave of rhythm had a wide impact on the Internet. Later, not only in Los Angeles, but even in almost all cities in the United States with NBA teams, people saw this news.

It can be said that for a while, Zheng Ye became the enemy of all American fans, and the rhythm of denouncing him was higher and higher.

And this is the biggest reason why the Bucks officials have not responded directly.

Because they themselves knew what happened, it was impossible to apologize to Stephenson and the public, but they couldn't come up with strong evidence, so they could only keep silent.

And their silence also intensified the pace of condemnation brought about by this article. More and more people came out to demand an apology from Zheng Ye, including some famous people and even some government officials.

However, all of this suddenly stopped at Stephenson's apology article.

As soon as his article came out, it almost caused a sharp turn in the attitude of the people on the Internet.

The fans were stunned. It was fine for the condemned person to remain silent, but the "victim" came out to apologize and personally proved that he was in good health. There was only a little conflict between the two.

This left them speechless, and some even began to suspect that this was the development of the Chinese manipulating this matter to force Stephenson to apologize.

But not long after, Stephenson tweeted again to prove that the tweet was sent by him himself, and stated that he himself realized his mistake and had nothing to do with Zheng Ye, who was the biggest victim in this incident.

Now that the matter has come to this point, more than half of the many fans who were still skeptical immediately came to their senses, realizing that they may have really wronged a good person, and their attitudes began to change.

But there are still some stubborn people who are still keeping pace, thinking that Stephenson must have been coerced, and they still ask Zheng Ye to come out and apologize.

Faced with such a situation, Stephenson recorded a video without saying a word, nothing else, just ran to the court and dunked a basket, proving that what he said was true and that his physical condition was fine.

In this way, the remaining part of the diehards can only accept the reality, and their voices are drowned in the apologies of many fans.

That's right, an apology.

Immediately after Stephenson's apology came out, fans who reacted quickly ran to the Bucks' official Twitter to apologize to Zheng Ye (Zheng Ye did not register for his personal Twitter), admitting his mistake.

Since then, there have been more and more apologies. Until the third day after the incident, there was basically no negative news about Zheng Ye on the Internet. dare to believe.

And Hoffman's influential news condemning Zheng Ye has become the best scapegoat for American netizens to shirk their responsibilities. Everyone thinks that he misled the public, which led to this incident.

Therefore, when the trend of the Zheng Ye incident on the Internet completely changed, Evans, the real boss of the United News Media, called Hoffman: "Mr. Chris Hoffman, in view of your damage to our company's credibility Huge impact, upon the decision of the board of directors, I will resign from your position as the editor-in-chief of the sports news section, I hope you can understand." His words were very soft, but in Hoffman's ears, it was like a bolt from the blue.

You know, reputation is very important in the United States. Now he has become a target of public criticism on the Internet. It can be said that everyone knows it. In the future, in Los Angeles and even the United States, it can basically be said that he will not have a place. land.

Because no company is willing to accept such a "convicted" person.

So when the boss finished speaking, there was only a "bang", and Hoffman fell to the ground, unconscious.
