Chapter 1271 1271 Rumors

The news this time caused an uproar in just 96 hours, triggering a hurricane-like chain reaction. From earthquakes to tsunamis to storms that swept across the border, within 96 hours, the entire United States was Feeling the huge energy contained in the name "Hugo-Lancaster".

But in fact, within the first 24 hours after the news of the "National Enquirer" came out, no major newspaper or TV station carried out reprint reports, and no one even blatantly conducted news tracking investigations, because everyone Maintaining his modesty. Either because of disdain to follow the news clues of the supermarket tabloids, or because the National Enquirer will be stupid again this time, or because of the effect of blocking the alliance, or waiting for the official response from Hugo...

But no matter what, during these twenty-four hours, everyone stayed put, and no one even took the initiative to contact Rick Rosen, as if he was afraid that one of his actions would detonate an unknown bomb and bring infinite turmoil. The entire American press was shrouded in silence, a suffocating pressure brewing and increasing over time.

In the next 24 hours, Jay Leno of "The Tonight Show" took the lead in making fun of his friends, "I don't know the current medical system, but nurses have become psychiatrists, and reporters have also become psychiatrists. It really makes me feel very uncomfortable, if I'm not confident enough about my humorous eloquence, who should I go to consult? I wonder if Mr. Justin, who trims the flowerbed at my house, can provide some help."

Jay did not bring this up head-on, but defended Hugo by innuendo, mocking the nosy of the National Enquirer. Obviously, Jie was on Hugo's side and mocked the news media's false reports.

With the "Tonight Show" breaking this balance, the talk shows of major TV stations brought it up in the middle of the conversation, but obviously these industry practitioners are on Hugo's side - they He has a deep understanding of the pressure created by the media.

Forty-eight hours after the report appeared, the major media were still on the sidelines, because Endeavour Elite Brokerage did not come forward to respond, the Los Angeles Times and New York Times were also silent, and Hugo himself did not speak at all.” The National Enquirer's news caused an uproar among readers, but there was a lull in the official stance, a contrast that made the media seem hesitant.

No one wants to follow in the footsteps of the National Enquirer, the major newspapers have their own dignity, and they will not humiliately follow the supermarket tabloids to pick up news. What's more important is that the "blocking allies" are still sitting firmly on Mount Tai at this time. Since they have decided not to follow up on this news, they are fully prepared for the current situation and will definitely not be the first to break the deadlock. , otherwise their previous behavior will only become a laughing stock.

However, the current momentum of Hugo is obviously underestimated by "Blocking the Alliance". The sales of 5 million copies of the "National Enquirer" has made almost everyone jealous, and major talk shows have begun to brush up on the incident. Casting his attention, this also makes the whole news situation show a strange pattern: the talk show and readers all know the news, but no mainstream media has officially reported it. Is this normal?

Obviously not.

The heat of the whole event continued to heat up in just forty-eight hours, and then continued to heat up.

In such a situation, there will always be someone who can't bear to take the initiative to break the deadlock: the "Chicago Tribune" takes the lead and bravely takes the lead!

It can be said that it has attracted much attention, and even many people are relieved: finally the first person to eat crabs has appeared.

The identity of the "Chicago Tribune" is very special. First of all, it is a newspaper published in the United States, and it is also one of the top ten newspapers in the United States. Regardless of whether the purpose of the departure is prank or ridicule or profit, the fact is that it does join the ranks of blocking all news of "Death Row".

From any point of view, it seems that the "Chicago Tribune" should not believe the words of the "National Enquirer" and actively track and report the news; but the "Chicago Tribune" is the most unpredictable in the United States. A newspaper, it does not have the impartiality and strictness of the "New York Times", nor the trendy sharpness of the "Los Angeles Times". It is more often capricious, dark-bellied, cunning, sarcastic and humorous, and its completely slanted style is really strange.

So, for the Chicago Tribune to break the deadlock, it was unexpected and reasonable. More importantly, the "Chicago Tribune" has enough weight. Compared with a supermarket tabloid like the "National Enquirer", their follow-up is obviously a whole body. However, what if the remaining members of the alliance were blocked?

Since the "National Enquirer" only mentioned Hugo in the report and did not mention "Death Ramble", although everyone knew that Hugo was filming "Death Ramble" in Baton Rouge, the "Chicago Tribune" reported The reporter did not go to Baton Rouge, but arrived downstairs in the Beverly Hills office of Endeavour Elite Agency, and then personally interviewed Rick Rosen to seek the truth.

But unfortunately, they didn't contain Rick, because Rick wasn't in Beverly Hills at all.

However, the "Chicago Tribune" is not without gain. They then visited a number of related institutions including the "Los Angeles Times", 20th Century Fox, DreamWorks, etc. After all, they heard some gossip, although they did not make it public. , but the newspaper immediately sent reporters to Baton Rouge, which is undoubtedly a clearer signal.

The Anthony Bond Stewart report is likely true!

In an instant, the news media all over the United States are boiling, rushing to Baton Rouge, no one wants to miss this best news, it is no exaggeration to say: this may be the one that will change the development of Hollywood in the next three years. news. So, what they need is not restraint and caution, but speed.

In the next forty-eight hours, the news programs of the major TV stations were scrambling to report on the incident - the official report, which was originally just gossip in the streets and alleys of the National Enquirer, was now overwhelming in an instant. A strong public opinion offensive was formed, and everyone focused their attention on this matter. In just four days and ninety-six hours, the heat of the event reached a whole new height.

For a time, countless news came out from Baton Rouge, and rumors spread.

The "National Enquirer" once again made a big splash. They were well prepared and broke the follow-up report as soon as possible before all the media. "Hugo's mental illness is very serious, his emotions are completely out of control, and he shows terrible violent tendencies. During this period, he fought with the staff, resulting in minor injuries to several staff members of the crew, and one staff member was seriously injured and was forced to be hospitalized for treatment. At the same time, Hugo was also seriously injured and had to be hospitalized for treatment!"

As soon as this news came out, it pushed the two-day craze to its peak in an instant. The news report of the "National Enquirer" this time is obviously not true enough. The source of the news is very vague, and the description is vague, but the use of adjectives is constantly used. Increase the weight, but under the current circumstances, the authenticity of the news has skyrocketed, and many readers have easily accepted this setting:

Hugo is stressed--Hugo has mental problems--Hugo's emotions are out of control--the crew clashes. This version of the argument looks really convincing.

This issue of the "National Enquirer" has sold 2.8 million again. Although it has not surpassed the previous record of 3 million, it is almost unbelievable compared to their average sales of 1.3 million in the past year. 's infernal existence. And it's worth noting that they still don't mention "death row walks", not even a note.

Subsequently, a local newspaper in Baton Rouge, "Advocate," broke the news that "Hugo lost control during filming and accidentally injured one of the antagonists, one of the actors who was killed by Satan at the last minute. Released and survived, the actor stayed in the hospital for a week for treatment and received psychological treatment, but has not been able to return to the crew so far.

Due to Hugo's emotional management problems, the crew had to suspend filming and send Hugo to a local hospital for treatment by a psychiatrist. At present, Hugo still has not obtained the permission of the psychiatrist, and all work has been suspended. "

"Supporter" is a local newspaper in Baton Rouge, which is only published in Louisiana. This newspaper with an annual circulation of less than 500,000, this time, relying on its own local advantages, broke the news Such major news immediately became the focus of attention.

The "Supporters" news is obviously more detailed, not only correcting many details in the "National Enquirer" report, but also briefly introducing the name of the hospital and the situation of the crew. There are no impervious walls in the world, and strong dragons do not overwhelm the ground and snakes, these two adages are reflected in the "supporters".

This issue of "Supporters" actually sold 1.2 million copies against the sky, almost equivalent to their sales in a quarter, and the news was reprinted by several other newspapers with higher circulation.

The matter is far from over here, and then the media broke the news that "Hugo's psychological pressure has always been a problem, and conflicts broke out as early as during the filming of "Seven Deadly Sins", which led to the crew having to close the filming."

It was followed by "Hugo had several physical confrontations with the staff during filming, and the situation was getting worse", followed by "Hugo had a serious mental illness, and signs had already appeared during the 'Before Sunrise' filming and must not be allowed. No long-term psychotherapy", and "Split personality? Depression? Violent tendencies? Hugo's mental illness is more serious than imagined", and finally "Hugo's career is over? When former partners talked about Hugo, Shaking his head to express his unwillingness to talk more", and even the news that "Hugo has attempted suicide several times, fearing to follow in the footsteps of Kurt Cobain"...

The public opinion has become more serious every time. Every time the newspaper publishes news, the situation is even more terrifying. It is hard to imagine that all this happened in just a few days, and the momentum is fierce and unstoppable!
