American Gossip King

Chapter 136 Global Hotspots

The September 917 Incident caused a huge uproar around the world and sparked countless heated discussions.

Within the United States, the vast majority of opinions were critical.

They condemned terrorism, self-righteously placing themselves on the moral high ground.

This was also the most glorious moment for the United States in terms of morality.

As "victims," ​​they can launch wars of aggression with a clear conscience, and even other countries cannot criticize them. Therefore, the United Nations quickly introduced a series of programs to combat terrorism.

Amid the collective condemnation of terrorism, the discussion surrounding Ian Karl and the butterfly became the biggest focus of the event.

"I've really started to admire that guy, Ian Carl. His courage is extraordinary."

"Me too. He might be crazy, but he's a crazy guy with courage and a strong sense of justice. He saved a plane, and even saved the president."

"Why don't you idolize Filileso? He's on the plane too."

"He was already close to death."

"And don't you find it strange? Why is it such a coincidence that both Filippo and Ian Carl are on the plane?"

"You're not trying to say that Ian Carl orchestrated this, are you? Don't talk nonsense, he almost died."

"Don't use conspiracy theories to smear heroes. Don't you understand the situation at the time? The Civil Aviation Administration said that the probability of a flight attendant successfully landing a plane is less than 10%. I don't think Ian Carl would take such a big risk."

"That's right, Ian Carl did a great job, and so did Filipso!"

"I suddenly had a thought: if someone survived American Airlines Flight 11, and then happened to come into contact with Filippo's blood and contracted AIDS, would you consider them lucky or unlucky?"

"Damn bastard, don't joke about something like this."

There was a lot of discussion and heated debate online.

In contrast, the comments from competitors were more meaningful.

The New York Daily published a commentary:

"Ian Carl is a hero, that's an indisputable fact. But we still believe he shouldn't have continued reporting under those circumstances."

USA Today published a commentary:

"According to information released by the Los Angeles Herald, Filipso appears to have had contact with Mohammed Atta before that."

The Los Angeles Herald responded to this:

"This newspaper confirms that Filipso did indeed have prior contact with Mohammed Atta, but he was unaware of Mohammed Atta's plans. This newspaper has all the records of their acquaintance and confirms that it was merely a coincidence."

USA Today stated:

"Ian Carl is indeed a hero, but he has also become the biggest beneficiary of this incident."

A barrage of criticism erupted: "Using self-interest to smear heroes, do they think we can't see through it?"

The major newspapers felt the powerful impact from Ian Carr and his media group, so their words were somewhat sarcastic, but this actually cleared Ian Carr of any wrongdoing—everyone knew it was jealousy from his peers.

Compared to newspapers, television stations reacted in different ways.

Some people tried to befriend them, while others tried to slander them; interestingly, each had their own perspective.

………………

"This is Infineon Radio. Was Ian Karl's post-incident interviews with the victims too inhumane? We seriously doubt how someone who so brutally exposes the inner pain of the victims' families to the public can be considered a hero?"

Because FITEK radio is owned by Viacom and the two companies have a bad relationship, it directly criticized them.

Unfortunately, the public didn't buy it.

"Stop talking nonsense, who isn't doing this?"

"Besides, this wasn't Ian Carl's own interview; it was one of his reporters."

"Viacom is just being a sour grapes, because everyone on United Airlines Flight 77 only agreed to be interviewed by reporters from Carl Media."

The public launched a tirade against Infete's broadcast.

"This is FOX News... Regarding Ian Carl's rescue of United Airlines Flight 77, we believe there's no doubt about it, but was it truly Ian Carl's achievement alone? Are we ignoring the other heroes in doing so?"

Fox News, part of News Corporation, didn't have many good things to say about Ian either, but it was still fairly fair, merely trying to diminish his glory.

"This is ABC News, and I'm your host, Georgia Cordell… We're more interested in his personal life than Ian Carr's heroic deeds. As far as I know, he was with Ms. Shauna before he announced his breakup with Scarlett. I wonder what Ms. Scarlett thinks about that."

Well, the topic has now shifted directly to Ian Carl personally.

"This is NBC News. Ian Carr and Filileso are both victims of the 9/17 attacks and have done extensive reporting on the events. I'd like to know if Ian Carr would be willing to relinquish the Pritzker honor to Mr. Butterfly Leso."

Very good, using interests to divide them?

Everyone kept their secrets well hidden, but it was all in vain.

Ian had already decided to give Pritz to Filileso.

In addition to major media outlets in the United States, media outlets around the world are also reporting on it.

The renowned BBC in the UK lavished praise on Ian Carr.

As loyal lackeys of the Americans, their anti-China sentiment is matched by their shameless sycophancy towards Ian—at least before they knew he was at odds with the Jews.

The same is true in China.

The Southern Media Group has once again been given the opportunity to begin a comprehensive self-reflection.

What makes a journalist risk their life to uphold their duty?

What made a business owner brave enough to step forward and save the people?

Even in the darkest of times, he shone like a ray of light on the earth.

"He never abandons, and he never gives up."

"In this materialistic age, what we need are great people who have professional beliefs, a spirit of selfless sacrifice, and the ability to shoulder social responsibility."

"Not all business owners are bad people; they also have their own kind and moral side."

"This is the world of freedom and democracy."

While there are still those in the US who criticize Ian, the mainstream international trend is to lavish praise on him.

In reality, even if someone did have evidence of Ian Karl's collusion with Mohammed Atta, it would be impossible to release it under these circumstances—the Americans wouldn't contradict themselves.

What they need is a reason to send troops, not an internal conspiracy, so it can only be an external attack.

Thus, doubts vanished like smoke and dust, leaving behind only the hero's glorious name.

Of course, not everyone is enthusiastic about it; there are always exceptions.

For example, TV Tokyo.

They played their cartoons without fail, as if everything happening in the world had nothing to do with them.

Ian said: "Having such unwavering determination is a good skill and a professional quality!"

I respect all dedicated workers!
