Chapter 1207: Aftermath in the Circle
Someone once joked that rumors are always more powerful than refuting them; Lies are always more attractive than the truth. Of course, the shock when the facts are revealed to the world is still incomparable, but human nature is like this: they are keen to watch the excitement, they are keen to stand on the moral supremacy to criticize others, the more ordinary people, the more unsatisfactory people are in life, the more so, they want to find their own psychological balance, even psychological superiority, through guò accusations and criticism of others.
At the beginning, Michael Jackson was a moworn. Child. At the time of the case, countless people were like defenders, and without evidence, they ruthlessly criticized Michael, which is also an important reason why the media can exert such power, and it is also the reason why witch trials can still find a breeding ground in modern society.
Now Jordan Chandler confides in the truth, everyone claims to be a defender, as if the person who scolded Michael was not himself at all, just as if he was blinded and made a mistake for a while, and then cursed the Chandler family with a tone of hatred, and then condemned the Chandler family with the eyes of jackals, tigers and leopards. Such a sense of superiority makes them enjoy it very much.
So, when all the news reports focus on the truth of the Michael Jackson matter, the interesting thing is that the protagonist Michael Jackson doesn't seem to be the focus at all, but the Chandler family becomes the focus of attention, everyone is discussing the Chandler family's badness, greed, cunning, terrible and cold-bloodedness, and everyone seems to have forgotten the real victims.
But for Michael, maybe it's a good thing not to have that much attention, and the last thing he needs right now is that attention.
As long as the truth is clarified, it is enough, one qiē is enough, and sooner or later those colored glasses will feel ashamed, and when they see Michael again, the uneasiness of conscience will make them bow their proud heads.
Just when the whole United States was in chaos because of the sudden truth, the major news outlets were under tremendous pressure, because the truth came out to prove the truth of the witch trials, although it had been nearly two years since the incident, but the hot pain still invaded, as if a loud slap in the face of every media.
Hugo's unyielding attitude in the face of more than 100 reporters is still vivid, so that the pride of the "uncrowned king" in the heart of every reporter was thrown to the ground, trampled and stepped on. For the reporters, it is really a relief that Michael and Hugo did not come forward at this time, did not add fuel to the fire, and did not fall into the ground.
Therefore, the media followed the popular trend with peace of mind, focusing all their attack on the Chandlers, making the Chandlers double or triple their anger.
In fact, the tape could not be used as evidence in court, because it was obtained through illegal channels - Dawes installed bugging devices in the homes of civilians who were not suspects, which was absolutely forbidden and would have to go to jail whenever the Chandler family filed a lawsuit. Therefore, the tape could not be used as evidence in court. Although Jordan's confessional testimony in front of everyone could have been used as evidence for a conviction, he was not in the police. The prosecutor's office signs a plea, so it has no legal effect.
In other words, the Chandlers still cannot be convicted. What's more, Michael did not show up to file a countersuit.
But this monstrous rage stabbed the Chandler family like a real dagger, making them suffer no less than Michael Jackson endured. This pain is physical, but also psychological, like hell on earth - although no one has ever known whether there is really a hell in this world, the pressure and panic of distance can create hell alive.
The media focused its fire on the Chandlers, but the ostensible shift in target did not mean the calm of insiders, in fact, after CBS TV "News Sixty" exclusively reported on the incident, almost everyone noticed an important point, CBS TV did not have the reporter's signature, but withheld the name, only using "D. c", and the station also used the term "special correspondent" in the reporting process, rather than "special correspondent". This qiē indicates that the source is not an internal CBS reporter.
Then insiders launched an investigation, and the contacts in the circle were obviously more extensive, Dawes Carter's name became popular all over the American news circle almost overnight, and every news practitioner knew this name, and the paparazzi believed that Dawes was the new king of paparazzi after Ron Clara, and in an instant, countless people wanted to communicate with Dawes for the first time to understand the story behind his uncovering the truth, and CBS TV even wanted to invite Dawes to tell the story on a talk show.
But what is surprising is that Dawes actually gave up this huge opportunity to become famous, politely declined all invitations, and then mysteriously accepted an interview with the "Los Angeles Times", the only one.
Why the Los Angeles Times? Although this is the largest newspaper on the West Coast of the United States, second only to the New York Times in the United States, this does not justify Dawes choosing the Los Angeles Times, because it is not the most influential newspaper in the entertainment industry, and they are definitely not willing to pay a high price to buy out exclusive newspapers. Dawes's choice is intriguing.
Soon there was speculation about the connection between the Los Angeles Times and Hugo, but the question was ...... What is the connection between Dawes and Hugo? They now lack a key point that connects all the clues, which also makes everyone deny this speculation, after all, there are many important people and important relationships in the entertainment industry in addition to Hugo, and there are too many directions they can guess.
However, the major news outlets are vaguely aware that it seems that a conspiracy is already brewing, perhaps...... It's just that perhaps, Michael and Hugo's revenge is starting to come to light.
The Los Angeles Times interviewed Dawes Carter, but when the news was released, they still didn't release Dawes Carter's name, continuing the "d." c", this is also because Dawes's means of obtaining evidence are not honorable, Dawes does not want to become the target of public criticism, and he also swaggers through the market, is this not a clear provocation to the authority of law enforcement?
But even so," d. c" was still popular all over the United States overnight, along with the record 1.8 million copies of the "Los Angeles Times", which achieved a new sales high for the "Los Angeles Times" in 1995. c" has become the most high-profile paparazzi in one fell swoop, and it has made countless paparazzi envious and admired. Envy Dawes grabbed this exclusive and seized this opportunity; It was impressive that Dawes had captured important information that all of them had missed, gambled on it, and reaped the rewards handsomely.
Regarding the origin of the news clues, there is not much to say in the report, which is also the most bizarre place. In the published interview, Dawes only said that he felt that he was hiding in the first place. Child. There is more conspiracy behind the case, and he carefully studies the interviews of Michael and Chandler, including Hugo, and eventually leads him to piece together scattered clues that lead to the incognito Chandlers.
It's okay to fool the average reader, but it's worthless to professionals, because it's nonsense at all - every paparazzi goes to study the incident, they start by collecting clues from all sides, and there are not many differences. The point is how Dawes discovered the key clues - of course, everyone knows that this is a secret, and Dawes is certainly reluctant to say it.
However, there was a paparazzi named Brian Heveson who was really stupid enough to study all the news reports at the time, and Brian, who was only 15 years old this year, was also well-known in paparazzi circles - not because he was famous, but because he was so young that he became the object of ridicule.
After reading all the news reports, Brian seemed to have really discovered something, mysteriously approaching Dawes, no one knew what they said between them, but since then, Brian and Dawes have become close to each other, and even the "Los Angeles Times" began to buy the photos taken by Brian, which triggered more speculation from the paparazzi.
Soon, there was a variety of news from within the "Los Angeles Times", some people said that Michael was unwilling and hired Dawes to follow the Chandler family for a long time, because the Chandler family was indeed blackmailing Michael, and Michael originally wanted to catch the evidence that the Chandler family blackmailed him, but he accidentally returned his innocence; Some say that Dawes bought the court and the police. The internal eyeline of the inspection bureau stole the information of the original court case, found clues from it, and then targeted the Chandler family; Some say that Dawes was a private investigator who placed bugs on Chandler's family and used illegal means to extract confessions to force Chandler to confess to the crime on tape......
For a time, there were different opinions.
Among these many statements, there is one that has not attracted too much attention, some people say that Hugo is the key person, from the beginning Hugo knew about the conspiracy of the Chandler family, so he unswervingly supported Michael, and then Dawes got a clue from Hugo, which dug up the bombshell.
There is actually a basis for this statement, amital sodium. Those who care can find that as early as when the incident broke out, Hugo mentioned the medicine of amital sodium that no one knew, and everyone didn't pay attention afterwards and was passed by Hugo; Now the truth is out, and Evan Chandler's use of ampital sodium on his son has become the spotlight overnight.
However, this statement did not cause much discussion, but some real old foxes took notice. What they care more about than the matter itself is that Hugo's strong influence on the news media has penetrated into the depths silently; What they care more about is how they should seek more benefits as a member of the media circle and entertainment industry; What they still care about is that the storm brewing behind this news event has finally smelled of danger, and it seems that the dark clouds have reached the top at this time, but they don't know who will suffer the loss this time, or if everyone is happy?
