that's nice, but BURN THE WITCH. Or, like, fire her.

[crazy_diamond]

ARMYs won't stop until that journalist will apologise.

 

Seriously, what has this media become, now we have to be afraid of them too? As if antis are not enough...

[QKDXKSTHSUSEKS]

Damn y'all don't fuk about ya get shit done

 

But imma need the reporter to apologize or be fired or both

[gore]

bullshit apology.  they think this will work after the shit she's written about bts.. lmao.  she needs to acknowledge she's wrong, not some standard apology from the ceo. 

[Guest]

Well that chick still needs to apologise

[truthonsale]

I'm glad at least the CEO apologized but to be honest I hate those run-of-the-mill apologies. It never appears sincere...

 

 

Sorry OT, but it's so cute how you became such a full force Army now, OP  

 

[nixsi]

Half hearted apology, keep it. Karma will be a bad boomerang for you

[Aliens-United]

Copying my post from the MT:

 

 

 

They said it 'wasn't their intention to harm BTS and the fans' and that it was a 'misunderstanding' but in the same letter said that they would try to publish more accurate and balanced articles.   That in itself is already contradictory. Also, the CEO is just doing damage control. They should make the reporter herself post an apology so that she knows that what she did was wrong. Instead, she's still running around churning out more useless articles. The CEO didn't even bother to point out that his staff screwed up and that what she said wasn't an opinion but libellous. She did not present her articles as opinion pieces but as so-called 'facts'. They're apologising for hurting our feelings but not acknowledging their wrongdoing. It's BS.

She is still writing news and her articles are still being published in the morning today. When k-army called they sadi Jeon Won is not there. Xsportnews allowed all these defamtory articles towards BTS(the hanteo being biased towards BTS, twisting facts from the verdict, and then accused Billboard). No intention?

[Soilei]

keep it.

 

dont even need apology from her cuz it won't mean anything , just get her ass fired.

[Downvotesforeveryone]

I want her fired, with her unethical ass

[jjangyi]

that reporter needs to apologize too

[Kotik]

she should be fired

[vivianss]

The hashtag is trending world wide and still trending in Korea since yesterday. Others media outlets calling them out and defending BTS, their journalism credibility obviously get questioned inside at outside korea.

Damage control.

But at least they don't stay silent.

 

But the reporter..can she just........

[Cyphur]

She really thought she was gonna get away with those shitty articles. She twisted everything to make it seem like BTS' achievements aren't legit 

[Teru]

uh I dunno what the reporter said that was supposedly so awful but I think it's a bit creepy for fans to be stalking a random woman and demanding she lose her job over an article about a pop group

 

there are a bunch of people in the replies to that tweet openly saying they want her number released so they call her and saying stuff like "these type of ppl need to get death threats once to make them understand their place" wtf? how is this reasonable?

 

if the article was that bad then certainly demand it be rescinded with an apology and disciplinary action if the law sees fit, but don't go after an individual and try to ruin their daily life. it's k-pop. who did she kill? jesus

[diminie]

I hope the reason she's nowhere to be found it's because she quit before she was fired.

lol.she defamed bighit, bts and billboard

its unprofessional and in normal circumstances she should be fired for that. its not a joke.

 

i dont agree with stalking and death threats obviously.

but saying that she doesnt deserve to be fired...? lol.

i really hope nothing ever happens to you thats gonna be manipulated and twisted by media because thats fucking shitty feeling. (and yes i've experienced it on my own skin)

whether you are normal citizen or a pop group.

I'd never have even heard of her hugely defamatory article without all this fuss...

 

whether she keeps her job or not is up to her employer. I don't see who it makes a difference to besides her. I'm not the kind of person who wants someone to suffer because they insulted my favourite pop group. she should apologise and that should be the end of it. active harassment of an individual isn't justified no matter how much of an "anti' she supposedly is

for someone working at OH press, you should be first to know that wielding a pen is as good as wielding a sword. you can strike down anyone easily with it.

 

She won't kill physically, but she can mess things up to the point of killing people's dreams, hardowork and livelihood...which is just as bad as killing them if you see it from a greater perspective.

 

it is one thing to be biased and say "oh, their concept/music sucks, xx has better concept/music" and another to be defamatory/libelous out to ruin people's reputation and integrity.

I love it when people give their 2 cents without knowing the context. I hope you don't do this when you write for OHpressed. I agree with your second paragraph tho.

exactly! this reporter tried to ruin someone's credibility & reputation by writing a slander. kpop or not it is still someone's career.

Oh lol. Totally makes sense.

Journalism expert is in the house yeay

 

But this is a serious matter. Credibility of one huge news outlet with thousands of readers is getting questioned here.
