Chapter 725: Attack it and save it

In the case of the opponent's aggressiveness, if it is only a passive defense, the situation will become more and more unfavorable, both Murphy and Kara Firth, who represents the twentieth century Fox, know this, and to a large extent, the two are not good people at all, who dared to take risks to instigate such news events, and are now not afraid of the fierce offensive of the Catholic Church. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

However, the two have tough personalities, but they don't have a hot head and make decisions casually.

"Whatever you say." Gal Gadot frowned, "We are all on the losing side, how can it be reasonable to fight back?" This is important. ”

Carla Firth and Murphy had spoken before, and Murphy said, "All the families of the victims are the ones who have a lot of sympathy from the media and the public, and we have to get around them." ”

Fools would choose these people as a point of attack, and even if they did have a private deal with Catholicism, the power of compassion was strong.

"That Archbishop Márquez-Costello has a good plan this time." Carla Firth said with emotion, "Every step is very steady, leaving little room for attack. ”

Gal Gadot shook his head, "You can always find a point to fight back, right?" ”

She thought for a moment and said, "The archbishop's TV interview? The current protests? Victim's dealings with the church? These all have certain loopholes. ”

"It's useless to attack these." Murphy waved his hand, "Archbishop Márquez-Costello must have been prepared, and if it is difficult to hurt them, they will not restrain." ”

Looking at his unmarried, Gal Gadot asked, "What do you want to do?" ”

Murphy hadn't revealed to her before, "Attacking the Catholic Church can feel pain, and you have to go to the place where you have to save!" ”

Standing up and taking a few steps, Murphy added, "Let's put aside everything that has happened since the shooting at the Chinese Theatre in Hollywood, and don't care what Catholics have done or what kind of pressure has been put on us, let's go beyond these restrictions and see what we have in our hands that can drive the people of the Catholic Church crazy!" ”

Gal Gadot thought for a moment and immediately understood what Murphy meant, "Boston Globe, Spotlight? ”

"Yes, that's it!" Murphy paused and said, "Didn't we collect a lot of information about this before?" Give them to Carla and let the media of Twentieth Century Fox spread out. ”

These scandals, which have been tried to cover up by the Catholic Church, are certainly painful to their pain, compared to those insignificant rebuttals.

In the words of the other side of the Pacific, this is where the attacking enemy must be rescued, and it also diverts the attention of the media and the public.

After obtaining the relevant authorization from the "Boston Globe", in order to strengthen the persuasiveness and prepare the necessary publicity materials for the future, Murphy asked people to collect a lot of cases about Catholicism, and in the past, he only thought that ** may be a relatively individual behavior in Catholicism, but after seeing those materials, he found that the real situation was far more serious than he imagined, and even could only be described as shocking.

Murphy has gathered not only cases, but also relevant corroboration, many of which have come from investigations by relevant United Nations agencies, but most of this has not been publicly disclosed under strong pressure from the Vatican and excellent public relations work.

That night, Murphy's material to Twentieth Century Fox appeared in Fox News' prime time in the form of hot news.

"Catholic priests sexually abused tens of thousands of children, revealing the Vatican rape scandal!"

The headline of the news was absolutely terrifying, easily attracting the attention of the audience, and as soon as the news began to play, the ratings of Fox News instantly increased by three points!

This is the dream news for any TV station.

Although Carla Firth is no longer at Fox News, most of the people in this industry actually work in a similar style to her back in many ways.

As long as the news is strong enough, there is nothing they dare not do.

Of course, if the news only has headlines and no actual content, it will only be reduced to lip service.

"'The only way to resist temptation is to give in.' Wilde's words are a bold illustration of his own sexuality, and the 'sinful words' that the Vatican has most often referred to in its criticism of the homosexual writer for many years. But now this sentence has become another interpretation of the Vatican, which is mired in sex scandals. The United Nations Committee on the Rights of the Child recently conducted an investigation into the sexual abuse of tens of thousands of children by priests......"

"The United Nations Committee on the Rights of the Child has conducted an investigation into the use of a Cruze sweatshirt to enlarge the official and sexually assault girls by the Vatican and the Roman Catholic Church and its members, and eventually led to the breakdown of many young girls.

A little later, Walt Disney's ABC television station also reported a news story about Catholicism.

"Choirs and desire-repressed church schools have been breeding grounds for homosexuality and pedophilia for half a century – a thing that has long been no news in Europe and the United States – and the siege of Catholic sex scandals that began in the 1980s is like a live-action version of Diego Rose."

"The eighties of the last century. At that time, Archbishop Márquez-Costello, who was in charge of the Diocese of South-Central California, was not the current regional archbishop, but he had been in an important church position in the Los Angeles area for three years, managing the affairs of the church throughout Los Angeles. One day in February 1982, a public case was placed on his desk: in the northeast of downtown Los Angeles, police found an 11-year-old boy who had been 'let the little boy sit on him for sex' by Father Peter Hullerman, who was the local priest. After the scandal, Father Hulleman was forced to leave Los Angeles, and the then H.E. Márquez-Costello issued a relevant verdict: Hulleman was not dealt with and he was treated by a psychiatrist before being transferred to another parish. ”

"As a result, Peter Hullerman, who should have been severely punished by the law, did not get the punishment he deserved under the protection of the church, but changed the parish and continued his pastoral career."

At the same time that the media began to report, Carla Firth also met with key personnel from the six major Hollywood companies, including Walt Disney, Universal Pictures and Warner Bros., on behalf of Twentieth Century Fox, and the parties quickly reached a consensus on how to protect the common interests of Hollywood films.

No one wants to turn an outside force into a yoke for Hollywood movies.

In the face of huge interests, all actions were the fastest, and just one day later, the United Nations Committee on the Rights of the Child convened a press conference to publish a report on a Catholic-related investigation that had not been made public until now because of some pressure.

Sandberg, the current chair of the United Nations Committee on the Rights of the Child, said at a press conference that according to the reports of numerous national investigative committees, Catholic clergy under the Vatican Holy See have committed crimes against tens of thousands of children around the world. At the same time, in order to cover up the scandal, the perpetrators are often transferred from one parish to another, or from one country to another.

Sandberg added, "Through its investigation, the Commission found that the Vatican Holy See did adopt policies and measures that led to the persistence of child crimes and impunity for perpetrators." The Committee deeply regrets that the Vatican has long put the preservation of the Holy See's reputation and the protection of clergy in conflict with the law above the best interests of children, and strongly urges the Holy See to immediately amend canon law to explicitly identify *** against children as a crime rather than 'moral turpitude', and to repeal all provisions requiring victims to remain silent. ”

Other key members of the UN Committee on the Rights of the Child also noted that although the Vatican formally signed the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child in 1989, some provisions of its canon law are still inconsistent with the Convention's norms, particularly with regard to the protection of children from discrimination, violence and all forms of sexual exploitation.

At the end of the press conference, CRC called on the Holy See to make full use of its moral authority to condemn all forms of harassment, discrimination or violence based on the sexual orientation of children and adolescents or the sexual orientation of their parents, and to support efforts to eliminate the criminalization of homosexuality at the international level......

Immediately afterwards, someone on the Internet broke the news that in some parts of the United States, there were very serious vicious incidents of Catholic priests and missionaries forcibly bombing nuns, and they also forced nuns to have abortions, and some nuns were forced to take contraceptive pills......

The latest issue of "The Hollywood Reporter" also put down his old business and participated in the reporting.

"During the 30-year period in the Diocese of South-Central California, the four Catholic archbishops, including Márquez Costello, either suppressed the accusations against these priests or transferred the abusive priests to other churches, in short, without any protection or remedial measures for such incidents, resulting in the prevalence of child abuse in the Catholic Church for a long time."

"The Los Angeles police conspired with the church to cover up the truth about a large number of child abuses, and many police officers treated pastors as privileged, and the police would only raise these things with the archbishop but not investigate on the ground, and the archbishop did so to keep the secret, avoid the spread of scandal, and preserve the reputation and property of the church."

In the past, there was always more or less news of this kind of thing, but most of the media, under pressure from the Church, rarely reported it in the open, but suddenly, it seemed that all the media had become enemies of the Catholic Church, and many of the media newspapers that had previously followed the trend of criticizing Hollywood movies also turned their efforts to digging up the Catholic scandal.

Several major media groups worked together, and it only took a few days to shift the focus of media and audience attention.
