Fox TV's Rice Rabbit campaign made me a little excited and a little pessimistic as a woman.
When something happens, we feel uncomfortable, but when it is tacitly assumed by the environment as a conventional event, then it seems reasonable. That's one of the stories inside Fox. Under the influence of men in power, sexual harassment and even physical superiority have become a tacit approval, and even Roger's "leg control" is already well known. However, everyone acquiesced, because Fox is an existence like a TV empire, because many people need this job to support their families, and because they offend Fox, they can no longer find jobs in other TV stations... Under all kinds of pressure, We chose to be silent, and they began to take every inch.
Fortunately, women did not choose to be silent, stand up, provide evidence, and then get the respect and rewards they deserve. But is it really that simple? We can see that when resisting power, even under the issue of sexual assault, under the threat of women's rights and privacy, there will be women who hold a silent attitude. Not all women can face all kinds of pressure, so powerful women should stand up, but their courage is not only to fight against higher power, but also to face the dissuasion of their side and even their subordinates. So, thank you to those women who dare to stand up.
On the other hand, when the rights protection is successful, can we really be optimistic? not at all. In the movie, when Roger is out of class, the new boss is still a man who treats women more than Roger. Use a box to padded a high position and put pressure on employees. When Roger was in power, employees at least dared to put same-sex group photos on the table, and she put them away silently under the new boss. And the new management is still male in power. Is the environment better? No, and no more optimistic. This is the sad part. If not enough women have the awareness of self-protection and independence, then equality will always be a dream.
The film is so informative that it had to pause halfway through to peruse the background information. The background of the story is in the TV station again, and it is easy to think of the drama "Newsroom", but from the perspective of the overall level and the rhythm of the film, "Breaking News" is inferior to "Newsroom", and more conflicts are manifested in In terms of the inner conflict of female characters, the relationship between characters is handled very restrained, perhaps, this is also the living state of Fox TV and the quality of their journalists.
From the perspective of the movie itself, this movie is not the best, but from the perspective of women, this is another issue worthy of our reflection on the issue of anti-sexual abuse and equal rights, and let us face the plight of women's survival. Because this kind of predicament does not distinguish between the political system, national conditions, and income, so choose an independent and strong life, and when necessary, don't be silent.
