722 Sleepless Nights
"Lan Li-Hall is popular: there is no one in his eyes, causing a riot, eyebrows and angry eyes, choking fans!
- An accident occurred at the premiere of 'I Fight Cancer', one audience member was seriously injured, and 146 audience members were slightly injured!"
In the middle of the night in the wee hours of the morning, a piece of news was posted on the Internet, attracting the attention of countless night owls, and little by little it began to ferment, and the good deeds involuntarily began to get excited, and they couldn't wait to reprint it: shocked, excited, excited, jubilant, angry, disdainful!
It was as if the spark had fallen into a pile of oil-stained burlap, and the flames gradually rose up, not violent, not strong, but the smoke began to spread, and gradually, people smelled that something was wrong, and then the fierce tongue of fire began to lick all the flammable materials around it.
This news from Cornell McGregor, a reporter for the entertainment section of Entertainment Weekly, exceeded half a million hits in just one hour. It's four a.m. Eastern time, it's one o'clock in the middle of the night Western time, and it's a quiet moment, and it's unbelievable that the news has achieved so much attention.
The buzz created by the name "Rite-Hall" is growing exponentially, and the hustle and bustle of JFK Airport and Lincoln Center is just the tip of the iceberg. But that's not the end of it.
"At the premiere of the new work, Lan Li-Hall had a verbal conflict with the reporter, the scene was ugly and ugly, and the situation was about to erupt!"
"Avid fans sparked a stampede, Lionsgate refused to cancel the premiere!
Lan Li-Hall caused fan confusion, and the scene was critical at one point, and five ambulances arrived at the scene. ”
"The blood-stained red carpet and the 'Cancer-Fighting Me' premiere were chaotic and the foreground was clouded. ”
"-for-tat, Hall and the reporter clashed head-on, and the elegant demeanor disappeared!"
"Sharp words, not giving an inch! Hall provokes reporters! The situation is almost out of control!"
"There were a lot of injuries, a lot of chaos, and the premiere of 'I Fight Cancer' was a mess. Ranley Hall equals Robert Pattinson?"
……
"Entertainment Weekly" is not the only news media to report, and it is also not the only news media to aim its arrow at Lan Li, in the early hours of the morning, in just 60 minutes, at least 10 news items appeared on the Internet, all of which pointed to Lan Li and launched criticism.
According to these news contents, Lan Li must be fully responsible for the chaos on the red carpet of the premiere, and then Lan Li is also the one who provokes the conflict with the reporter, and after the accident, the premiere is still held as scheduled, which is even more beyond the moral bottom line.
The news is undoubtedly an interesting thing -
They mentioned that when Lan Li appeared on the red carpet, there was an accident, but they did not mention the grand occasion before the red carpet, nor did they mention that the audience who attended the premiere that night far exceeded expectations; they mentioned the encirclement of Lan Li by fans after the chaos, but did not mention Lan Li's protection of Lauren and Lan Li's embarrassment; they mentioned the confrontation and conflict between Lan Li and Cornell, but did not mention the timing and tone of Connell's question; they mentioned Lan Li's resentment against the audience, but did not mention the specific content of the dialogue; they mentioned the continuation of the premiere, but did not mention the care and adjustment that Lions made to the audienceThey mentioned the number of wounded, but they did not mention the current number of wounded.
What they say is the truth, but only part of the truth.
As a result, public opinion fryed. The truth? What people care about is not the truth, but the breaking point. What do they see behind the news? They see a popular actor who has risen strongly, arrogant, arrogant, and has no one in his sights; they see a popular actor who causes chaos but refuses to take responsibility, cold-blooded, cold-blooded, and cold-hearted; they see an actor who is at the center of the topic, exposing the weakness and ugliness of human nature.
This is what the public wants to see. Then, the collective high/tide.
From 4 a.m. to 7 a.m. at dawn, the news was already buzzing with excitement based on East Coast time. If it were just one side, it might not have spread so quickly, but in fact, in addition to the negative news, other gossip media outlets also reported on the premiere — and the problem is that these supplemental reports did not come to set the record straight, but to add fuel to the fire.
"The reporter took the initiative to provoke, and Hall responded domineeringly!"
"The 'Entertainment Weekly' reporter challenged the bottom line, Lan Li-Hall fought back strongly, and the atmosphere was tense. ”
"In the face of doubts, Hall gave a strong counterattack, full of gunpowder, and the confrontation with reporters was about to break out!"
…… This is news about Lan Li and Cornell, and countless media have the mentality of watching a good show, whether they are for Cornell to fall into the well or fan the flames for Lan Li, anyway, they just want to watch the excitement, the more fierce the better.
"There was an accident at the premiere of 'Fighting Cancer', and the number of injured people is still being counted, and the current number is: 47. ”
"The popularity is overheated and the audience is out of control, and the premiere of Lan Li-Hall's new film is surrounded by fans. ”
"Lincoln Center had a movie-going frenzy that spiraled out of control and turned into a disaster. ”
…… This is a report on the accident of the premiere, and the news content is relatively objective, accurately reporting the accident of the night, telling the ins and outs of the night, including the premiere scene of more than 5,000 people. There is also the grand occasion of the premiere guests, and the suffocating accident caused by the surging craze.
"'Fighting Cancer' is moving forward in the midst of a storm, and the premiere prospect is clouded. ”
"The premiere was postponed for two hours due to an accident and went ahead as usual. ”
"Fans are fanatically pursuing, can 'I fight cancer' become a dark horse in this year's holiday stalls?"
…… These were reports of the postponement of the premiere, and the reporters objectively stated the facts: the premiere did go ahead despite the two-hour delay, and they also reported on a series of emergency measures taken by Lionsgate to calm the chaos and organize follow-up viewing by fans.
Unlike those news that gloat, most of these news are objective and truthful. But here's the problem: one-sidedness. They only captured a fragment of the night to illustrate, but they were not able to restore the whole picture.
In this case, these news also confirm the authenticity of those "slanderous" news - at least not to distinguish between the truth, and among the fragments of news, the audience who cannot identify the truth will naturally have associations: then, the rest of the alarmism must also be true.
The art of news reporting lies not in truth or objectivity, but in perspective and stance. The same news, from the perspectives of different religions, cultures, histories, countries, positions, genders, and races, can interpret countless possibilities, and then derive infinite possibilities of positive, negative, positive, and negative.
After the premiere of "I Fight Cancer" ended, the news media exploded like this, and the boiling news was dazzling, and it was gradually on the verge of getting out of control.
But one of the advantages of the Internet era is that traditional media is no longer a hall of words, and every participant and every bystander can become a news source, re-examining events from their perspective and restoring the truth of things. The question is, how should new media be used? This is a question that everyone is facing.
For the crew of "Me Against Cancer", the power of fans is undoubtedly huge and firm. They have come forward to clarify the truth, and launched an attack on the slanderous news led by "Entertainment Weekly", they restored the ins and outs of the accident on the scene, they restored the confrontation between Lan Li and Cornell, they restored the dialogue between Lan Li and fans, they restored the follow-up processing of Lionsgate, and at the same time, they also restored Lan Li's words at the beginning and end of the premiere movie......
The truth of the incident gradually revealed its original appearance, triggering a new round of heated discussions.
Among them, Bradley Adams, a reporter for the "New York Times", recorded the events of the night objectively and truthfully in a documentary way, and truly recorded the premiere from the perspective of a reporter and also from the perspective of the participants on the spot. Combined with the feedback from netizens and the fragmented news information, people finally pieced together the whole story.
This undoubtedly gives all viewers and netizens a new perspective, re-examining this news event, re-examining the work "I Fight Cancer", and re-examining the actor Lan Li Hall.
Brando Mania, a well-known netizen in the Yahoo community and on Instagram, spoke out again, documenting the whole event as a first-hand witness to a perspective that none of the reporters had captured—Brando Mania noticed Lanli's efforts to save Lauren.
At the same time, Brando Mania also confirmed that after the premiere, the supporters of Blue Rite personally went to the hospital, visited Lauren, and left a flower basket, fruit and the official signature of "I Fight Cancer", this poster was not only signed by the main cast of the crew, but also by most of the guests who attended the red carpet that night.
Brando Mania makes a very interesting point, "Hidden behind the boiling news hotspots, no one notices the efforts of Lan Li to save the accident, no one notices that Lan Li is also a victim in this chaos, and no one notices Lan Li's anger at reporters, spectators, and accidents." Before the official screening of 'Fighting Cancer', Lan Li said: "I hope this is a good movie, but I hope it is a good night even more.
The movie "Fighting Cancer" is undoubtedly a work of the right time to set it on such a chaotic night. However, no one cares about this, all the reporters care about is just the explosion, the excitement, the complaining and the hype. Perhaps, this is the most regrettable and angry thing in Lan Li's heart. ”
The news wave after wave, people have no breathing space at all, this wave of news has not had time to digest, the next wave of news has already arrived. This sleepless night goes on!
