In fact, most netizens don't really believe that today's media can be so honest. They are used to blowing things out of proportion.
Even if they wrong someone, so what? They only care about attention and magazine sales.
These days, gossip tabloids aren't afraid of receiving lawyer letters. They're used to skirting the edge, saying things that are ambiguous.
Even if they're exposed in the end, it's just an apology at most.
"Did the media get brainwashed today? They dare to say such self-defeating things; who would trust their reports in the future?"
"It seems Mu Yan must have some strong backing, making these media outlets come forward to clarify even at the risk of being wrong."
"I don't think these media outlets are trying to help Mu Yan clear her name; they might just be using Mu Yan to stir up heat, just like Fan Youyou and Zhang Qun."
