Chapter 1037: Chapter 1037: Guiding Public Opinion
She didn’t just take out her own money to help the so-called "mother and son," she even criticized the previous girl for lacking compassion.
"Miss, even though we’ve only met a few times, there are some things I still want to say, when we encounter situations like this we should help if we can. Even if you don’t want to lend a hand, you didn’t have to say such hurtful things, right? Otherwise, you should just apologize to them and let’s end this matter."
The bystanders around them echoed the sentiment, saying the previous girl had no sympathy and was too cold-hearted.
A few minutes of video would probably not have caused such a stir if it were just ordinary people involved.
But unfortunately, the girl criticized for being "cold-hearted" in the video was the currently popular Hannah Winter, while the other "kind-hearted" girl was Tiffany Lynch.
The carefully edited video ultimately portrayed Hannah as someone completely devoid of sympathy, cold-hearted and selfish.
The anonymous provider of the video stated that they could not stand by and watch a genuinely kind and good-hearted person being defamed, while the evil-doer was celebrated, which is why they chose to release it.
Although this reason seemed overly contrived, by that time, the public opinion had already been steered by someone else, with the leading comments all criticizing and cursing.
Those who watched the video afterward were also stirred by these comments, awakening their own strong sense of morality, joining in with messages of agreement and expressing similar views.
—— Damn, in this day and age, can’t we have some decent news to read? She’s been through enough, is criticizing her like this really necessary?
—— I really misjudged her, looking like a proper person on the outside, but harboring such malicious thoughts.
—— I mean, as an ordinary person, wouldn’t you at least give a few bucks to a beggar on the street? Even if you don’t give, there’s no need to say that to someone, right?
—— This is the true face of Hannah Winter, it made me vomit up last night’s dinner.
—— As a celebrity who’s so rich, what’s wrong with giving a little to others?
—— Shouldn’t someone like her be rolling out of the entertainment industry?
—— I mean, how do you know that the begging couple aren’t scammers? Besides, whether to help someone is a personal freedom, right? There’s no need for moral kidnapping, right?
—— Ever since I was young, I’d give something when encountering beggars. I can’t stand to see this sort of thing, never thought there’d still be people so cold nowadays, it’s disheartening.
—— I won’t watch movies starring such a person anymore, really regret the money I spent before, refund!
—— Refund, support Hannah Winter rolling out of the entertainment industry!
Public opinion continued to ferment, with those who spoke out first occupying the most advantageous positions, and various marketing accounts reposting, with articles edited to carry a strong tone of condemnation.
Of course, there were also some people who held an opposing view, believing that whether to help a beggar or not is a matter of personal freedom.
A small minority remained neutral, suggesting that the video was taken out of context and lacked authenticity. Moreover, both protagonists in the video were currently popular actresses, and it couldn’t be ruled out that someone was trying to drag them down and smear their names.
Seeing that some netizens had regained their senses, the fan club of Tiffany Lynch, under the guidance of their agent, began leaving comments under the videos reposted by various marketing accounts.
Their only goal was to praise Tiffany Lynch for her kindness, creating a stark contrast with Hannah.
At this critical moment, Tiffany Lynch also posted a thought-provoking status update.
—— In my opinion, offering a helping hand to those who need it is something everyone must do. When faced with injustices, I am just expressing my opinion without any other motives.
This statement was met with a large number of shares as soon as it was posted.
Different from the mockery she had previously received.
