Mary Maples is the producer of an evening news program.
Once, her team produced a program. According to this program, a presidential candidate was very likely to have evaded military service through bribery in his early years.
This episode was broadcast before the presidential election, causing a great sensation.
However, after the program was broadcast, the authenticity of the documents used as key evidence was questioned by all parties in society.
. Just as Mary's team was trying hard to find evidence to refute the doubts, the informant who provided this set of evidence actually came forward to admit that the evidence was forged.
so, this "explosive news" instantly became fake news.
Major media have accused Mary of publishing false information without verification, which is contrary to professional ethics.
And Mary, as the producer of this show, is believed to have something to do with certain interest groups and has to undergo a thorough investigation.
Next, she was pushed to the forefront of public opinion. Some media labeled her as radicals, and her home was surrounded by paparazzi.
For a moment, Mary was under great pressure and could hardly face the next rigorous scrutiny.
She wants to give up on the struggle and obey the conspiracy theory imposed on her by public opinion.
Fortunately, with the encouragement of her husband and seniors, Mary decided to stand up and say her original intention of making the show, rather than letting others define it.
Next she began to seek help from lawyers and actively respond to cross-examination of the review team.
During the review process, Mary always acted sober and calm.
And just as the review was approaching, Mary suggested to the review team that the program team's original intention was to discuss whether the President had ever evaded the war through bribery.
However, most people in public opinion are indifferent to the facts themselves. They care about the authenticity of a certain evidence and the conspiracy behind the revelations. They even determine that the political tendency and character of the journalist are problematic because of the false evidence.
That's it, Mary sticks to her position in the sharp questions from the review team.
In the end, the review team also found no evidence of Mary's political bias.
This incident was settled, and Mary's executives resigned, and Mary's journalism ended.
However, later, Mary's previous report won the Peabody Media Award, and this report was also considered one of the most important reports in the journalism industry in the past decade.
From this point of view, Mary's achievements as a journalist have been recognized. Moreover, this also proves the importance of a journalist focusing on the facts itself.
I think it's like Mary repeatedly sticking to her own position. When a person encounters problems, he must be good at listening to voices from all sides, and learn to boldly put forward his own opinions, and not just follow the trend.
I thought that when I was cleaning the table, I still had a bowl that I didn’t take away. So my father asked me: Why did I fall into a bowl?
If it were in the past, I wouldn't know how to answer, but this time I said calmly: Oh, I forgot.
I think that being able to answer questions positively at the first time is a small improvement for me.
In fact, facing problems often starts with facing your inner thoughts. While paying attention to methods, you can say whatever you think. Sometimes it is so simple to express.
