针对至少数万人的要求,白宫终于回复了!通篇避重就轻,有如媒体巨鳄abc的官方发言人,令人无语。



一位三番群的朋友对信件内容总结如下:下午4:35收到白宫请愿网站(或称白宫民政局,或白宫包子铺)的email,是回复关于10月16日美国广播公司辱华言论的请愿,说人家已经道歉啦,也采取措施啦,美宪第一修正案保护言论自由,即使该言论惹人不快; 联邦政府不能逼迫abc取消该节目; 若不满意,可以去联邦通讯委员会fcc抱屈,他们管电波,不受白宫左右,云云。

一位朋友说:看了这个声明只想骂娘。鸡毛之事和中国的 peaceful rise 风马牛不相及,把两个事挂钩,用心险恶。大家要苦练内功,从基层发动更多亚裔选民和政客,反种族歧视之斗争任重道远。



另一位朋友则回复:你也太对这些官老爷幻想了吧。。。 看这文笔,外交辞令都没有, 就是一门卫等风平浪静时打发的。。

一位女侠则说:同意。无中生有把这个扯出来,蛮不讲理又别有用心。跟上次波士顿报纸上那个白痴读者的来信有异曲同工之妙,哈哈。这下大家擦亮眼,不会被那些贴金美化的语言蒙蔽了,那不是给所有人的。

一位朋友很愤慨地表示:所谓选票民主,就是如果你人数不够,哪怕你的要求正义合理,也把你当成空气。虽然我是中国人,但这次抗议根本不是中国美国的事情。通篇回应,有如abc的代言人发言,实在滑稽!他说:也许这和美国民主无关,和低劣的人性有关。只要简单的一人一票,就永远逃不脱对弱势族群的漠视。

更有朋友提出:那就按照一个加拿大的会员建议的,得绕过“白宫”这个中宣部,直接到联合国去告。



白宫回信如下:

what we have to say about jimmy kimmel thank you for your petition. your petition requested an apology from those involved, and to cut the show. the parties involved have already apologized independently. jimmy kimmel has apologized on-air, and issued a written apology. abc has removed the skit from future broadcasts, taken the clip down from online platforms, and detailed several changes in its programming review process in response to this incident. you can find more about jimmy kimmel's apology here, and abc's apology here. on a broader level, as the president has stated publicly, the united states welcomes the continuing peaceful rise of china. the comments you are writing about do not reflect mainstream views of china in the united states. the federal government cannot force abc to remove this show. the first amendment of the constitution protects free speech, even if individuals might personally find it offensive or distasteful. it may be upsetting when people say things we might personally disagree with, but the principle of protected free speech is an important part of who we are as a nation.

if you think this issue merits additional scrutiny, you may file a complaint with the federal communications commission by visiting fcc.gov/complaints. the fcc is an independent agency that regulates the airwaves without input or consideration from the white house.
