Chapter 1323 Taking the Blame and Resigning

For Nick Fury, this period is definitely the most tormenting moment in his memory.

Even when he was forced to that point by Hydra, or when he was in prison, he didn't feel this kind of suffering.

Because at that time, although he was in a difficult situation, he would not be the target of public criticism like he is now, and be shouted and beaten by everyone like a mouse crossing the street. But now, almost all the pressure of public opinion has been oppressed on him, which makes him feel a little unbearable.

Avoidance may be a shameful choice, but it can be useful at this time. If possible, he really doesn't mind escaping for a while, just like how he used the name of feigning death to break free from Hydra's control. But obviously, today he can't use such tricks. Because this itself is part of the plan, what he has to do is not to escape from someone's sight, but to cooperate with the plan and play his role well. So today he can only appear in this place, in the way he least wants.

"Chief Ferry, what do you say about the charges you say you've been charged with?"

"Director Fury, do you have anything to explain about the fact that you took advantage of the convenience of your position to incriminate others at will?"

"Director Fury. The White House's statement is all your own decision without the White House's knowledge. Is this really the case? Are you really the mastermind behind the scenes, or are you just a scapegoat?"

From the very beginning of the entrance, the reporters rushed forward like sharks that smelled of blood, and put one tricky question after another in front of Nick Fury. For them, this is a chance to stand up after they have been frustrated for a long time. So naturally, they exploded with 120% enthusiasm.

Among them, some cunning guys set traps in their words, waiting for Nick Fury to get in. It can be said that if Nick Fury is not cautious when answering their questions, then he may immediately fall into a worse situation.

However, Nick Fury is an old man. When it comes to the kung fu of psychological warfare, he is so advanced than these reporters that he doesn't know where he has gone. So naturally, he saw through this trick at a glance, and cast a disdainful glance at these reporters with ulterior motives, and then walked towards the press conference on his own.

This attitude annoyed the reporters who asked the question, but there was nothing they could do about it. Because no matter what, the current Nick Fury is still the director of the FBI and the top figure in the government of this country. It is obviously unwise to offend such a person too much without knowing how things will develop. Journalists are not fools, they know what to do. Of course, if Nick Fury falls from his perch.

Then it's another story.

This kind of thing is unlikely to happen in the past. But today, this is a question that no one can say for sure. This is what the reporters came here for. They wanted to see how the government gave an explanation, and whether the final result would be what they imagined. Regardless of whether the result is or not, they all have different coping methods. It all depends on what happens next.

Thinking about it this way, this press conference officially hosted by the US government has officially announced the start. There is only one important official person present at this press conference, and that is FBI Director Nick Fury. And he is not here to do some irrelevant defense or to stir up things like that. All he had to do was issue a circular, and that circular was the U.S. government's response to what happened to him.

"Regarding the FBI's abuse of power this time, the White House has conducted a detailed investigation. During this investigation, we realized that there are considerable hidden dangers in our department. Both the intelligence agency and the executive agency have many An unforgivable mistake. Someone needs to be responsible for this mistake, and this kind of thing also needs an account for the entire United States. So here, I, Nick Fury, as the current director of the FBI, officially announce my resignation. The relevant affairs on the Internet will be temporarily managed by the FBI's internal managers, and the White House will soon select someone to replace me. That's it, thank you!"

With a dark face, he stated such a fact indifferently. Nick Fury didn't give the reporters below any chance, and directly evacuated from the press conference. And just when his back disappeared in front of all the reporters, the entire press conference erupted into a commotion like a frying pan.

The FBI director resigned? This is no small matter. You must know that if there were no major accidents, it would be impossible for a department like the FBI to undergo any obvious personnel changes. Because this position is really special. Anyone who sits in this position will inevitably come into contact with many secrets about this country. It is even said that in some cases, they will have more secrets in their hands than the president knows.

Under such circumstances, the handover between the heads of each intelligence department will be a very solemn matter. The predecessor will give everything he has to his successor, and the government will do everything possible to ensure the safety of the predecessor and ensure that the secrets in his hands will not be exposed.

This is why Tony's assassination caused such a big fluctuation. Not just because, as if by a spell, the president was assassinated again. It was even more because the former director of the FBI was assassinated by an unknown person, so that his wife and children did not survive.

Even the intelligence agency of a country cannot guarantee the safety of its leader, so what security can be guaranteed in this country? This question was a very popular topic at that time, and many people were discussing it. After such a long time, although this issue has become colder. But it is undeniable that with the resignation of Nick Fury, such a topic may inevitably be heated up again.

This is something journalists want to see, because the hotter the topic, the more attention they will receive. And by the same token, some of the revenge things they do will be more effective.

As a media worker, journalists can be called uncrowned kings for a reason. And it's not just because they're able to give humans today access to information to see and hear something that's going on. And more because they have the ability to influence the thoughts of others through the release of their own information.

A report cannot avoid the reporter's own subjective imagination. No one can comment on issues from a truly neutral point of view, even if it is a neutral party, driven by feelings and interests, it will more or less lean towards a certain side. And this is on the premise that journalists themselves have considerable professional ethics. If there is no professional ethics, then they can completely rely on nonsense to confuse the public's thoughts and opinions.

It's not impossible. In fact, when the news media has developed to where it is today, many media have lost their credibility. Purely for the sake of sensationalism and hits, many media are accustomed to exaggerating small things and talking about big things in the direction of disaster. Regardless of whether their claims have basis or not, whether or not they can hold water. As long as their news can get clicks, it is considered a profit for them.

What's interesting is that many people still like to watch such sensational news, and they always take these fabricated things as real to argue with others plausibly. No matter what these people think, first of all, their actions have connived at this type of media reporters, and gave them the courage and motivation to continue to do so. The state of online journalism is getting worse, and there are more and more outrageous news media people. These people are partly responsible for these problems.

As one of the countries with the most developed media and entertainment industry in the United States, there are not a few news media that like to grandstanding. So from the moment Nick Fury announced his resignation, these media have already ramped up their horsepower and started to do everything possible to spread rumors about Nick Fury and the Stark government. So for a while, the entire public opinion began to be filled with such voices.

"The director of the FBI took the blame and resigned. Is this a show of justice and justice? Or is it a scapegoat thrown out from behind a dirty conspiracy?"

"Nick Fury is speechless. He has been completely disappointed with the government after being abandoned as an outcast. It is not ruled out that he will stand up and accuse the government of conspiracy."

"The FBI blackmailed him and was abandoned instead. Nick Fury is full of stains. How did he get to where he is today?"

Almost all the voices are making use of the topic, wanting to extend from this incident to a deeper place. Regardless of whether there is such a meaning in it or not, the media no longer have any scruples, but have become unscrupulous. Anyway, their job is to make up random things, so there is no psychological pressure at all to do so.

Of course, not all media will make up random things. But even those media that are relatively fair on weekdays will not say anything good about the Stark government at this time.

"The Stark government's second fired FBI director, can't our government guarantee that the secret holder is a reliable candidate?"

"Behind taking the blame and resigning, is the reason really that simple?"

They won't say anything harsh, but their speech will inevitably lead some people's thinking in other directions.

The government's conspiracy, does the government really have any ulterior conspiracy? Although there is no clear evidence, at this time, almost everyone believes this statement. And this also caused the situation that was about to be calmed down to repeat itself again.
