漫画事件的最终报道,但不是结束

谢谢大家关注“老鼠事件”。

到昨天为止,至少有 7000 人在文学城上读到了有关这个漫画的报道,很多人留言表达了他们的想法。可以相信,因着文学城,有相当一部分的读者已经直接给漫画作者和编辑部写信,表达了大家的抗议。

今天,报纸登出了正式道歉。道歉信说“ The Plain Dealer apologizes to our readers who were offended by the May 14 editorial cartoon relating to the earthquake in China. Although it was not the cartoonist's intent to diminish the gravity of this catastrophe, we take seriously the reaction of our readers. The cartoon, which many viewed as offensive, has also been removed from Cleveland.com, the newspaper's Web site. ” 链接在此:

报纸同时以《中国政府被丑化、悲剧被掩盖》为标题登出了克利夫兰“中国职业家企业家协会”的来信。链接在此:http://www.cleveland.com/plaindealer/stories/index.ssf?/base/opinion/121127223496540.xml&coll=2

完全可以这么说,报纸最终决定表示抱歉,是因为收到了大量的读者来信,是因为感受到了华人团体和个人的巨大压力。

如果你对这个结果满意,不妨告诉报纸他们做了正确的决定,并谢谢他们。这是报纸的读者代表 Ted Diadiun 的电子邮件: tdiadiun@plaind.com

感谢大家的努力,漫画事件得到了理想的结果,但,这不是结束。这幅漫画当初被登出来,说明美国人对中国的理解是片面的、扭曲的。怎样增加其他族裔的人对中国人的理解,以避免今后类似的事情再发生,是你我要思索的问题。。。。。
