1717 New Departments and Programs

"Recently, the federal government established a new department called the Byler Federal News Administration..."

Momo sat across from Lynch and reported to him on his work during this period, and he had to mention the newly established news administration.

Lynch nodded and motioned for her to continue.

"Now the federal government requires us to push news in accordance with the wartime code of conduct. Before broadcasting news, for some news with uncertain factors, it is best to contact the News Administration first."

"Only with their permission can we broadcast it. If the news we broadcast does not have their permission, or..."

She curled her lips and said, "It has caused some unexpected effects, so we may be sued."

As she spoke, she handed a document to Lynch, "This is their standard."

Lynch flipped through a few pages, which contained regulations on what could and could not be broadcast.

It only identifies those that are completely irresponsible and cannot be broadcast at all. There are also some controversial ones or those that are not included in this list. You need to ask the Information Administration separately whether it can be broadcast.

After Lynch put down the document, he asked, "So what's your problem?"

If it were just this problem, he believed that Momo would not take the initiative to come to him.

There must be some other problem.

As Lynch expected.

"After other colleagues received the notice...you know, what we in the news industry care about most is authenticity and immediacy!"

"Now that they are doing this, we will definitely have to submit some sensitive news for review in advance, which may delay its timeliness."

"If they are not happy with the content of the news, maybe we have to destroy the authenticity of the news!"

"Now some colleagues want to boycott what they did, and some people called me and asked us if we wanted to participate..."

Momo's voice became softer as she spoke, and she kept watching Lin Qi's expression change.

But it's a pity that no one can find what they want to find on Lynch's face. All they can find is what Lynch wants to show them!

Lynch shook his head slightly, "Why do you want to participate?"

What does Momo want to argue? From the time she entered this industry until now, no matter whether she has done something that violates her own conscience or principles, she has always had her own persistence.

What she insists on is to be true to herself, do real news, and do real programs!

Her previous interviews were very popular because she always told the truth, and people will like her only if she tells the truth!

No one likes a liar, this is the consensus of all intelligent creatures, because they do not want to be deceived.

But most people are good at lying, so when one person stands up and tells the truth, it is very important to everyone!

This is like the last glimmer of human morality that people in darkness can see. From this, they will think that maybe they have it too, but they have just hidden it!

Other TV stations, some media, and newspapers also think so, but not all.

For example, some small newspapers that are good at fabricating stories about celebrities and lawsuits to attract readers and attention are not included in this list.

Those small newspapers may not have a registered capital of more than 100,000 yuan, and they have never been afraid of lawsuits. It would be great to go bankrupt and open another one!

However, media and newspapers that focus on real news are very resistant to this.

Lynch knows very well that what they are resisting is not that the news will lose its authenticity or immediacy in the future. What they are resisting is that after so many years of unbridled nonsense, they finally have a department to control them!

The federal media has always been known for its boldness. As long as it can attract attention, they will publish any news!

In the worst case, the news would be withdrawn and the apology would cost money, but the fake news has already had its effect and the stock price has risen, so who cares about the apology?

Now, they can't do that because someone will come after them.

They are never for justice, they only see the money in their own pockets and the money outside!

Momo thought about a lot of lofty things, ideals, ambitions, responsibilities to the underlying society...

Lin Qi didn't give him a chance to speak. He raised his finger and pointed at her to tell her to stop talking.

"This is war time, dear, you have to understand one thing. In the Federation, the president's power during war time is greater than our so-called dictators and tyrants, who have greater power than these people!"

"Even if he thinks you have betrayed the country now and asks someone to deal with you secretly, you deserve it."

"No one will investigate this case, because really smart people know that whoever touches it will die."

"This is not what you are challenging..." Lynch lowered his head and glanced at the name on the cover of the document, "...the authority of the Information Administration, what you are challenging is the authority of the president!"

"If you really want to do that, you'd better wait until the president leaves office before making trouble!"

"At that time, Congress will support you!"

Momo suddenly realized that Lynch was right!

She realized this not because Lynch convinced her, but because Lynch mentioned Congress!

In the past, Congress always tried to find ways to cause trouble for the President. They were not the kind to cause trouble by watching all day long, but when the President wanted to push through some ridiculous proposals or sign some presidential privileges.

Those in Congress will jump out and point their fingers at the president’s nose and ask him if he wants to establish a dictatorship!

It’s an internal competition for consciousness within the power structure, as the people also know that not voting for someone is a huge threat.

Sometimes they may not really want to do that, but they have to take a stand, especially the opposition parties, who will definitely take a stand.

But so far, no congressman has talked about this matter, and no congressman has even organized a hearing to decide whether to reject this law.

This shows that they have been standing together for a long time.

Momo suddenly became a little creepy!

Politics is very dangerous, and those who work in the news know this very well. She dares to say anything, but she dare not say anything about those she cannot afford to offend.

She dares to do anything, but she doesn't dare to do anything that offends those she can't afford to offend either!

Press freedom has always been just a joke, let alone immediacy and authenticity.

She nodded solemnly, "I understand, I won't participate."

When a group of media comes to confront the centralized president, all we can say is that they have done too much fake news and have even forgotten who they are!

Lynch nodded, "What about other things?"

Momo then reported on the operation of the tactical team. It has to be said that this time Lynch made a fortune again!

When Momo was reporting these contents, she couldn't help but look at Lin Qi. Lin Qi was younger than her, but much richer than her!

All her money combined may not be as much as Lynch makes in a day!

This is not her flattery to Lynch, this is her true opinion.

Although Blackstone TV was originally optimistic about the Tactical Team program, its optimism was limited. In other words, the people at the TV station had a ceiling for the imagination of the operation, which was too low!

Lynch has no upper limit, he directly breaks through the atmosphere and leads to the universe!

After the Tactical Team went online, it quickly won the ratings championship in its time period. Then those military-industrial groups seemed to not regard money as money, crazily giving it to the TV station!

Momo initially thought that the advertising costs of hundreds of thousands for a family should be about the same. After all, there are more than one advertisers providing weapons for the tactical team.

The real results will make everyone smile from ear to ear for a year!

Almost all the military-industrial groups in the federation are involved, spending at least hundreds of thousands, and at most millions, in advertising dollars, demanding that the program arrange more of their weapons!

Even Ankok Industries, which owns Lynch's shares, spent 150,000 yuan on one episode of the show. Yes, there was only one episode!

They sent three armored vehicles in, providing no firepower, and the fuel in the tank could only drive five kilometers.

But it is used as a core prop in stage competitions!

The final of the tactical team is for the monthly champion to engage in a multi-team melee in a randomly selected environment, either outdoors or indoors!

The winning team will receive 1 million in cash and an interview opportunity to join Blackstone Security!

Yes, Lynch added money, because the arms dealers were too enthusiastic. They sent more than 20 million, but they couldn't let the competition prize money be only a little.

Now not only the champion gets a bonus, but also the first, second and third place players, which adds up to 1.7 million, and then all three teams get interview opportunities!

Arms dealers attach great importance to this show because it is so well-known and popular. Since participating in the show, their sales have increased a lot!

Many people couldn't help but want to buy a weapon of their own after watching the show.

Maybe they will never have the chance to go to the battlefield and kill the enemy, but at least there will be someone who likes them!

Sales volume is always the touchstone of advertising. Facts have proved that Tactical Squad is terrible in terms of ratings. Naturally, everyone is willing to spend more money!

Lynch is always creating myths. When you think this is his limit, he will soon make you feel ashamed of your wrong perception!

TV stations say there are many things going on, but in fact there are not as many things as people think!

Now the Federation has long started the host responsibility system. To put it simply, one host is responsible for one program.

They are responsible for finding their own resources. If they have ratings, then they will rely on prime time slots.

If there are no ratings, it will be used to transition the boring time without viewers!

Of course, TV stations must also have their own flagship programs, but most of them are programs promoted by the TV station itself, rather than the programs of a certain host.

But it’s not like this. A host makes a channel popular, but after all, it’s still a minority.

Apart from the office politics between employees and hosts, there really isn't much to talk about.

It's just those things all day long, recording programs repeatedly, and then the hosts sleep with them everywhere for resources...

After Momo finished speaking, Lin Qi smiled and said, "Just in time, I also have something I need you to do here!"
