"New News" On March 25th, China News Network published a story about "Shenzhen post-90s girls feeding disabled beggars in the street and touching passers-by". According to the report, a girl who worked in Shenzhen after 1990 knelt down to feed a disabled beggar. In the picture, a girl in a pink plaid shirt and ponytail knelt on one knee and was feeding a disabled old man a box lunch. Girl from Xinhua, Hunan Province, 199 1 was born and currently works in Shenzhen. On the way home from work on March 24, the girl saw the old man staring at the box lunch in the fast food restaurant, so she paid for it herself.
This photo report entitled "Shenzhen post-90s girls feed disabled beggars" went viral on major news websites and Weibo, and many netizens gave the girl a thumbs-up and praised the move as positive social energy. But soon, some netizens pointed out that the news was a hype of the planning group. Confirmed by Shenzhen media, the whole behavior is actually a commercial exhibition hype. A newsstand owner who witnessed the filming nearby said that the girl only fed a few mouthfuls and left with the man who took the photo. After that, the planner apologized and admitted that the photo was posed. The first media, China News Network, also apologized, and China News Agency said that the reporter and the person in charge of the website had been dealt with that day.
The author of this report, Zheng Xiaohong, is the vice president of Guangdong Branch of China News Service and the stationmaster of Shenzhen reporter station. When the media began to question the truth of the news, she repeatedly denied it. After repeated questioning, she admitted that it was the manuscript sent by the correspondent and she was not there. However, Shi Jinquan, the correspondent she mentioned, was originally a well-known photographer and network promoter, and once contributed to Guangdong TV Station and many local media in Shenzhen. 20 1 1 Apologize to the public for planning a false report that "the mother of an eye cancer baby kneels and is teased by a" rich boy ". Why can such a fake news concocted by a "correspondent" with a "criminal record" be publicly published by a senior reporter?
After the incident was exposed, Zheng Xiaohong issued an "apology statement", in which she admitted that she "failed to strictly verify the news facts and perform the duties of a reporter", but still stressed that her original intention was to "spread positive energy and truth, goodness and beauty". But we really want to ask: can positive energy out of nothing spread truth, goodness and beauty? 178 people fainted in Changchun elderly vegetable market, but only 1 person was rescued.

According to the New Culture News, on April 5, 20 13, an old man fell to the ground due to a sudden cerebral infarction in the market on the second floor of Changchun Fortune Building. A merchant called 120, but during this period, 52 people stepped over the old man, most of whom looked calm. About 5 minutes later, a passing "white woman" stood beside the old man, guarding and comforting him until the emergency personnel arrived. During this period, another 126 people passed the old man. In the whole process, * * * 178 people passed the old man, and only the woman in white helped to take care of the old man. 178: 1, the new culture newspaper reported "this scene of indifference and warmth" recorded in the market surveillance video with the title "Changchun old man fell down because of a cerebral infarction."
The huge contrast between the truth (178: 1) has caused a lot of comments from netizens, and even reached the conclusion that "the world is getting worse, people are indifferent and morality is declining". However, the Workers' Daily, Xinhuanet and other media investigated the report of the New Culture News and found that this video was posted online after accelerating the editing of the monitoring screen at the scene of the incident, which was not a reflection of the real situation.
According to other media reports, after the old man fainted, Mr. Yang, the owner of the vegetable market who called 120 at the first time, told the reporter: "There are good people who want to help. At that time, I told him not to help. Cerebral hemorrhage is easy to help. There are still people who want to call 120, and I told them that they have finished. "
According to manager Wang, who is in charge of property management in Fortune Building, the place where the old man fell is an important passage with a width of less than two meters. Because there were too many people, someone stepped on the old man's leg.
"Leaping and striding, a word difference, a thousand miles away." Manager Wang specifically explained that most passers-by were concerned about the injury of the elderly until the white woman who seemed to have some medical experience appeared.
Zhangyan, a market worker, also said, "I was on duty that day when the old man fell. When I arrived at the scene, some merchants called 120 for help as soon as possible. Many enthusiastic passers-by said not to touch the elderly for fear of causing' secondary harm' to the elderly. At that time, there were individuals at the scene to maintain order, so that pedestrians should not watch, avoid the elderly and pass carefully. "
On April 9th, New Culture Newspaper euphemistically corrected the previous report with the title "How to transmit positive energy after the old man's cerebral infarction fell", which wrote: "In the 12 minutes after the old man fell to the emergency personnel, we need to thank many people, the true love of the' woman in white', Lao Yang who sells mushrooms, and thank you for calling 120.
If it is the news that "the old man fainted in the food market, everyone helps", it is certainly newsworthy, but I am afraid it is far less eye-catching than the huge contrast event of social indifference and warmth "178: 1". From the reporter's notes published in New Culture News, it can be found that the reporter has preset his position only by watching the surveillance video when writing the report, which sets the indifferent pedestrians against the "woman in white" who is enthusiastic about rescue. Therefore, his interview only focused on the "woman in white", and New Culture News then launched a news plan to look for "woman in white" in the whole city. If there were less grandstanding and strict adherence to the spirit of seeking truth and being pragmatic, wouldn't the truth be so easily ignored?
In addition, from the above false reports, it can be found that for the ordinary audience, there are pictures and truth. There are mountains of irrefutable evidence such as "touching porcelain", "beating the old man in the street" and "the recurrence of Xiaoyueyue incident", which will surely arouse great indignation in society. These cases remind the news media and practitioners that live pictures (videos) will not automatically reach the truth, and the reporter's ability to remove the false from the true is indispensable and requires efforts. Wenzhou beggars wandered home for 9 years and received 7 million compensation for demolition.

"New Newspaper" On April 7, Jiangxi Information Daily published a reporter's report "Wandering for 9 years and instantly becoming a" rich man ". According to the report, in July 2004, Zhu Jing, a poor Wenzhou native, set out from home and, like Wenzhou people all over the country, stayed away from home to pursue his own career. Because of repeated defeats and wars, Zhu Jing has been sleeping on the streets, begging and wandering for nine years, and even contracted severe tuberculosis. On March 27th this year, after 50 days of treatment, Pingxiang Rescue Station sent Zhu Jing, whose condition improved, back to his hometown in Wenzhou, Zhejiang. In the mixed feelings of sadness and joy, my brother Zhu Zhong told his brother who had been missing for 9 years that he had been engaged in the development of villages in the city in his hometown a few years ago and had received more than 7 million land compensation.
Truth On April 8, Hyundai Gold reported that "this is fake news, which is seriously inconsistent with the facts". According to reports, this person named Zhu lives in Houge Village, Kunyang Town, Pingyang County. Before and after Zhu left home, there was no change in the house in his hometown, and there was no land acquisition and demolition during his departure. It is rumored that Zhu has gone out to do business. After the business failed, he was ashamed to face his family and began to wander. In fact, he ran away from home in a fit of pique. In the past nine years, he has driven a taxi, worked as a security guard, entered a black brick kiln and dug coal. It was not until 20 10 that he began to beg because of serious tuberculosis.
After verification, the key information such as "more than 7 million land compensation" in the report was relayed by the staff of the rescue station. The reporter did not make in-depth verification, and the information daily was not strictly controlled, which led to inaccurate reports. Jiangxi Press and Publication Bureau instructed Information Daily to deal with the responsible persons seriously, and requested to further improve the system to prevent the publication of false news. Information Daily dealt with reporters, duty editors, duty directors, duty editors and other relevant responsible persons. This is one of the few false news cases reported by the management department of 20 13, and the relevant newspapers paid a heavy price for it. It reminds us once again that truth is the life of news and the bottom line that the press must abide by. In addition, this fake news has undoubtedly attracted people's attention to exciting words such as "demolition" and "7 million" and the embarrassing situation before and after. Its wide spread may reflect more social focus topics such as real estate development and getting rich overnight, leading to the collective fall of traditional media and media official Weibo in the face of fake news.
