Chapter 58: A New Direction for Public Opinion

"The recently released book 'Lovely Bones' is undoubtedly an excellent work, and it is a rare novel about family trauma in the North American market, and countless people who have been hurt have found a little solace in this book......

The author of the book, Xu An, has also become the object of discussion among readers, and has become the focus of public opinion because of his crime of intentional injury, and when almost everyone is denouncing this young man, I found some interesting little problems......

The revelation of Xu An's crime was a report published in the Washington Post by Mr. Andrew, and coincidentally, as the only reporter to observe the trial, I had the privilege of meeting both of them at a very early age......

Unfortunately, there is a discrepancy between what I have seen and Mr. Andrew's account, and that Hsu attacked his supervisor, Mr. Andrew, in the New York Times office in September, leaving Andrew seriously injured, which Hsu did not deny, either at the police station or at the trial......

In fact, there is a certain reason why Xu An violently injured people, and Mr. Andrew, as a supervisor, used very inferior means to frame his interns and fabricate the fact that Xu An compiled sensational news, resulting in the result that Xu An was fired by the New York Times before the end of his internship period......

An outstanding young man, the main player of the varsity basketball team in middle school, an outstanding graduate, entered the world's best journalism major with excellent grades, studied at Columbia University School of Journalism, undergraduate, graduate school, up to five years of hard work, intern at the New York Times, he may be at home in the New York Times, get promoted, or he will be the winner of the Pulitzer Prize for journalism in the future, which is not an unusual thing at Columbia University School of Journalism......

All the hard work, all the hopes, just because of Mr. Andrew's false accusations are going to come to naught!

I can't help but ask myself, what would I do if I were in that situation?

If it were you, what would you do?

Despite his excellence, his hard work, and he even met the Lance family through an interview and wrote such excellent work as "Lovely Bones", we have to admit that he is still just a young man......

Even the judge and the jury expressed sympathy and indignation at what happened to him, and if it weren't for his tough attitude, the judge would have even been ready to acquit him......

Sensational news, the most hated thing of the New York Times, in the last century, the New York Times fell into a trough because of the public opinion attack caused by sensational news, and almost couldn't turn over, and finally the president resigned, and the new president came to power to reverse all this......

It is conceivable that the "New York Times" has absolutely zero tolerance for sensational news, and Andrew actually used this incident to frame Xu An, with very sinister intentions, which also made him himself fired from the newspaper, and at the same time, it can also explain why the former director of the "New York Times" would publish the news in the "Washington Post......

According to reliable sources, Andrew's news was offered at least $20,000, and many newspapers received his offer, and finally the Washington Post came up with some conditions to get the scoop......

Our Mr. Andrew was very clever and took advantage of the popularity of Xu An and his new book to successfully sell himself for a good price, but he was not grateful, and still slandered the young man in the report......

Arrogant, rude, disrespectful and full of violence, for this reason, I spent a week interviewing Xu An's classmates and teachers in elementary, secondary and university schools, his former colleagues, and his neighbors......

In the eyes of the teacher, Xu An is a good student who is diligent and studious, humble and polite, in the eyes of his classmates, he is a kind and helpful good guy, in the mouth of his colleagues, we hear a kind and hard-working young man, and in the eyes of his neighbors, Xu An is as lovely as their child......

Here, I would like to ask Mr. Andrew: What is your purpose to frame such a good young man by such a bad means?

We don't know why Mr. Andrew refused to be interviewed, but some of the anecdotal stories I interviewed with the New York Times may shed some light on the fact that interns of color have a hard time passing internships under Andrew, and that the pass rate for people of color is very, very low compared to whites......

This may explain Xu An's impulsiveness, but unfortunately we have no evidence......

Finally, I attach the full transcript of the trial, as well as a few transcripts of the interviews, more of which I can't show you all due to space limitations, but I have saved all the recordings of the interviews and I will post them on my personal page later......"

An article in the New York Evening News quietly appeared on newsstands and bookstores, and at first it did not attract attention, much to the disappointment of Mr. Evan, who had been following the newspaper's sales feedback. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info

Soon, however, some people who had read the newspaper relayed the contents on the Internet, causing more and more onlookers, which in turn drove the sales of the New York Evening News to rise, so that many newsstands began to run out of stock.

The New York Evening News has prepared a lot of stock very rarely, and the reason why it has not been distributed at once is because the distributors are worried that they will not be able to sell it, so they are not willing to ask for more.

The editor-in-chief of Evan was very happy about this, but he was not happy about the sales of this issue, because it did not bring much profit, in fact, the newspaper itself has not much profit to speak of, and many newspapers rely on advertising expenses to survive.

Editor-in-chief Evan values the topicality and subsequent impact of Stanley's news!

And the facts did not disappoint him.

Half a day after the newspaper went on the market, the Internet, as the fastest place to respond, has turned the sky upside down.

A few days ago, it seemed that everyone was hacking Xu An, saying that he was violent, saying that he was arrogant, but there were also many people who didn't believe in the newspaper, but unfortunately there was no way to refute it, and now with Stanley's news, those readers who like "Lovely Bones", or because of the novel Love House and Wu like Xu An, all of a sudden popped up.

The remarks on the Internet are chaotic and complicated, some people say that this is disgusting hype, some people say that it is the crisis public relations of Boulder Random House, some people say that the truth is finally revealed, and some people turn the wind around and start scolding Andrew!
