The Wolf of Los Angeles.

Ocean Parkway, Twitter Building.

In the office, Hawke quickly browsed the information on Twitter, which was almost flooded with news about the Father St. Bian scandal.

This time the news broke out with particular force.

Because Fox TV is not exclusive, most media can find relevant materials from their own news collection mailboxes.

From Yahoo to Google to Twitter, the priest and the little boy have dominated the trending searches.

Hawke called Caroline and said, "Send out the Nicole Kidman news as well."

The possibility that an Oscar-winning actress might be involved in the priest scandal would further heighten the heat of the incident and accelerate its spread across the United States and even the world.

Hawke also reminded: "Don't fake it."

"I understand." Caroline found the USB drive containing Nicole Kidman's photos and videos, plugged it into the computer, logged into the Twitter backend, and quickly edited the news.

She cited several photos and a short video, all with St. Bernard's Cathedral in the background.

"A devout Catholic and Oscar-winning actress Nicole Kidman donated a large sum of money to St. Bernard's Church."

Caroline always remembered Hawke's words that responsible and formal media like Twitter should not report fake news.

So, it is true that Nicole Kidman went to the church and donated money, and there are photos and videos to prove it.

Similarly, the content written in the following news is also true.

"It is reported that Nicole Kidman's friend and agent Pat Kingsley is also a frequent visitor and donor to St. Baian's Church."

Below this paragraph, Caroline inserted photos of Pat Kingsley entering and leaving St. Benedict's Church and being summoned by the LAPD.

Pat Kingsley was one of the suspects summoned by the LAPD.

Hawke had received information that after the Hollywood agent arrived at the Western Police Station, his mouth was easily opened and he confessed to sexually assaulting male students from St. Baan's Welfare School many times.

Caroline used words to combine these real pictures and videos into a news story and then published it.

She put the news on the front page, in bold and red, and placed it next to the news about the priest of St. Bian's Church.

The news is true, and every piece of content is true, but the audience’s understanding will be completely different due to different entry points.

Twitter had already taken a preset position from the beginning and stood on the side of Tom Cruise.

Within a few minutes of the news being published, someone started leaving a message.

"This is horrible, Nicole Kidman is involved? Unbelievable, she has always been my goddess."

Someone replied, "She has been working with her agent Pat Kingsley for more than a decade. It is said that Pat Kingsley and Tom Cruise had a falling out because of her. Have you heard Pat Kingsley's recording? She has been arrested by the LAPD. Her agent was involved, but Nicole Kidman was not. Do you believe it?"

The people behind followed up: "I don't believe it! Did you see those bastards who were arrested? Except for the two priests from St. Baan's Church, the others were all Hollywood practitioners, including directors, screenwriters, agents, and Disney executives. There were also stars involved. It's too normal."

Someone else @Los Angeles Police Department: "There is a suspect here, her name is Nicole Kidman!"

Later, more and more people @Los Angeles Police Department.

Someone else made a serious analysis: "According to the exposed information, except for the church priest, the other participants in this invasion are all Hollywood professionals. Nicole Kidman has appeared in St. Baan's Church many times and donated money to the church. This can't be explained by coincidence. She must have purchased special services from the church!"

The people below don’t understand: “Buy?”

This person specifically explained: "I know a little about the Catholic Diocese of Los Angeles. The church actually doesn't have that much wealth. In the past ten years, the Los Angeles Diocese has been spending more than it earns every year, resulting in a large deficit. The main reason for this, in addition to the decline of the church's power, is that there are fewer and fewer donors, which has forced them to find ways to increase income."

The people below immediately understood: "So, these high-income Hollywood people donate money to them, and they provide special services."

Some people also tried to analyze Nicole Kidman: "Nicole's divorce from Cruise seems to be free, but in fact she has lost her only backer in Hollywood and can only actively seek help from other bigwigs. Judging from her award-winning movies, she got help from Harvey Weinstein. This fat producer likes to make deals with female stars. Nicole must have been very depressed in order to please him, and then vented this part in..."

All I can say is that once netizens start to use their brains, they can come up with super scripts that are extremely imaginative every minute.

The hot search keywords on the Internet regarding the priest scandal are undoubtedly Catholicism, St. Banian's Church, Hollywood, and donations, etc.

As for the news about Nicole Kidman, every hot entry is directly related to her.

Search these words on Google and Nicole's news will appear at the top of the display page.

On Twitter, news about Nicole was forwarded crazily. The possibility that the Oscar-winning actress was involved in the priest scandal had an influence that could not be compared to that of people like James Gunn and Pat Kingsley.

Nicole's situation is similar to her previous relationship with Tom Cruise.

Whenever negative news about a celebrity appears, the media never helps to clarify the matter. Instead, they are eager to step on the celebrity a few more times and create more excitement.

Small people become famous overnight, while big stars fall to the bottom and are ruined. Such news is really interesting.

…………

Burbank, Warner Studios.

Nicole Kidman, who had just finished her audition for "Bewitched", had just walked out of the studio door when dozens of reporters surrounded her.

This morning, Nicole and her manager Andrea were both auditioning on the set, and her agent Kingsley was detained by the LAPD again. She didn't know what was going on.

Andrea thought it was about Kingsley, so she quickly stood in front of Nicole and said loudly, "We don't accept any interviews about Pat Kingsley!"

As soon as he finished speaking, a loud reporter shouted, "Because Nicole Kidman did the same thing as Pat Kingsley, you feel guilty, right?" Nicole and Andrea were both stunned for a moment.

Other reporters asked questions.

"You went to St. Baian's Church and donated money, because they can provide you with special services?"

"Aren't you ashamed of sexually assaulting minors?"

"Did the LAPD summon you?"

Among these people, there was a reporter who shouted out with good intentions: "Nicole, go and surrender to the LAPD or the FBI!"

The studio's security personnel rushed over at this time, helped separate the reporters, and let Nicole get in the car.

The driver drove away, but the crazy paparazzi were still enthusiastic and at least a dozen cars and motorcycles followed.

Nicole hasn't felt this hot in a long time. In the past, she would have been delighted, but now she just feels annoyed.

Andrea took out her cell phone and made several calls in succession, then found her laptop, went online through the wireless network card, opened Twitter, and Nicole's news was on the hot search list.

She clicked it and read it once. Her first feeling after reading it was that Nicole did it too.

Andrea realized it later and suddenly understood why those people forced her to let Nicole Kidman go to St. Bernard's Cathedral.

It turned out to be waiting here.

Nicole asked, "What's going on?"

Andrea handed her the notebook, calmed herself down a bit, and said, "There's news online saying you're involved in Pat's case."

"Nonsense!" Nicole quickly browsed the page and became more and more frightened.

From beginning to end, there was not a single picture or text in the news that mentioned her involvement in the priest-gate incident. It only reported that she went to St. Bonnie's Church and the fact that Pat Kingsley was involved in the case.

But after watching it, even she doubted whether she had done it.

Nicole Kidman has been in this industry for more than a decade and knows that this is troublesome.

The other party didn't even spread the rumor, but rumors were already flying everywhere.

It’s so difficult to dispel rumors.

As Nicole was thinking, Andrea's phone rang.

The latter answered the call, spoke a few words carefully, and then hung up.

"It's a call from Chanel," Andrea said. "They want to know what's going on. They hope you can clarify it as soon as possible."

She took a breath and said, "Chanel has decided to temporarily suspend the negotiations with you for the endorsement."

Nicole couldn't believe it. She had worked so hard to get the opportunity to endorse Chanel No. 5.

"This is a rumor!" Nicole took out her cell phone and called Karl Lagerfeld directly.

Karl Lagerfeld said directly: "The audience of Chanel No. 5 is mostly mature women, many of whom are mothers. It is impossible for them to accept a star who is involved in a child sexual abuse case as a spokesperson, even if it is just a suspicion."

Nicole said: "I was falsely accused and framed."

Karl Lagerfeld was unmoved: "Now public opinion is against you, dear, you have to understand that the key to this matter is not whether you did it or not, but whether public opinion thinks you did it or not."

After saying that, he hung up the phone directly.

Nicole was so angry that she smashed her phone on the seat.

She said to Andrea, "Notify CAA and ask them to hold a press conference for me as soon as possible. Also, find a lawyer and send a lawyer's letter to Twitter!"

Andrea responded: "Okay."

Before the car left Burbank, Nicole received another call.

Tom Cruise called: "You seem to be in some trouble, do you need my help? If you need help, you can ask me for help."

"You can go to hell now!" Nicole hung up the phone.

Ten minutes later, she returned to her home in Sherman Oaks, and her lawyer soon arrived.

After carefully reading the news published on Twitter, the lawyer asked Nicole some more questions.

He thought for a while and said, "It's difficult to sue Twitter. The news they published was carefully designed to avoid legal risks. Even if we sue them, we will end up in endless wrangling."

Nicole said: "I am absolutely sure that Hawke Osment and Tom Cruise are framing me!"

The lawyer did not respond.

Although he had to stand on Nicole Kidman's side out of professional ethics, the lawyer believed that Nicole Kidman must have done it after having just read the news.

Of course he would not say these words to anyone. (End of this chapter)
