Is there a line that brought you to tears?

Just finished reading The Washington Post and I have mixed feelings. Compared to focusing on the in-depth analysis of a certain time, this film has risen to a format, or even an era. It has to be said that the current state of the news industry has a tendency to return. For the sake of selfishness and even more unimaginable aspects, wantonly false and exaggerated. Since the beginning of the industry, news truth is a sharp sword hanging above the head. Dazzling and awesome. But what no one can deny is that the soul of journalism lies in truth rather than achieving certain goals. Readers should also really know for whom to cry or speak up. Knowing that one's emotions truly endow them with an object worth expressing. I hope this film can be a wake-up call for the industry. The gradual prosperity of the public opinion field and the people's unthinking discourse are making this industry withstand unprecedented challenges. "Three people make a tiger, and five people make a chapter. Many people speak gold, and accumulate to destroy bones." Perhaps many people do not realize how much effect their publicly expressed opinions will have. Maybe one day, people who use keyboards to write books will also be coerced into the torrent of the times. Sadly, this kind of thing happens almost every day. We don't pray that everyone can make changes, we just hope that we can think more. There is a famous line in "Knives Out": "A man cannot question his truth just because he does not want to see the truth." There are many examples of emotional manipulation behaviors these days. The more secretive and avoidable things are, the less you will be cut off by your evasion. In the middle of the night, I can still cry for a line in the film that reaches my heart. "The foudings fathers gave the free press. The protection it must have, to fullfill its role in our democracy. The press was to serve the governed, not the governors." These rights play an important role in our democracy. The news should serve the people, not the government.” And now this phenomenon is unfortunately not seen, even in the United States. "the first rough fraft of history. "The press is the manuscript of history. Freedom of the press is both a right and a constraint. Of course we make mistakes. There is no doubt that you must first be worthy of your heart, your profession, and the sharp blade hanging above your head. Kant said: "There are only two things in the world that strike my heart deeply. One is the vast starry sky overhead. One is the lofty moral code of the heart. "When deeply in love with "the post" Graham let go of his little love and instead chose to convey the truth to the public. It was no different from Dan. "If you go to jail, you can save yourself from war, would you?" ” at great risk

    From "The President's Team" to "The Insider", from "Spotlight" to "The Washington Post"... This kind of film is always full of highlights, but everything is too familiar. Back in the day, when Spit was in his prime, he could flick his sleeves and point out a touch of red on black and white, but his works in recent years have become more and more old-fashioned and neat. The only thing that makes people remember may only be some moments of drama between the emperor and the queen, and the first time the Sansi team joined forces can only be regarded as unsatisfactory.

    Hey, I really don't know what to say. When a movie can be so neat from head to toe, from the inside to the outside, and neat to the same level, and so fits the current political context, it makes people feel boring, it is more like a "premeditated" Speech.

The Post quotes

  • Roger Clark: If you got the study from the same source, that would amount to collusion.

    Ben Bagdikian: Yeah, we could all be executed at dawn.

    Roger Clark: And we could be held in contempt of court - which means Mr. Bradlee and Mrs. Graham could go to jail. Mr. Bagdikian, how likely is it that your source and the Times source are the same person?

  • Kay Graham: When Phil died it was just - I was 45 years old and I had never held - I never had to hold a job in my life. But, I just, I loved the paper, you know. I do. I do so love the paper. I don't want it to be my fault. I don't want to be the one - I don't want to let Phil and my father and all of you kids and everybody down.
