看之前，知道这些就够了新闻室里，希尔迪刚接手一篇关于追捕的稿子，未婚夫布鲁斯却又因“mashing”被捕，只能在电话两头解释。她一边催沃尔特·伯恩斯现身，一边把市长堵在记者面前，连环追问逃犯、选举和责任归属。看似热闹的抢话里，藏着新闻标题、政治讽刺和临场施压的说法。

本章要点
看完能带走什么- 听懂 mashing 这个旧式暧昧指控
- 掌握追问逃犯与政治责任的句型

- 分辨新闻室玩笑里的真实施压
常被搜到的问题

这里是四十年代的旧式说法，指对女性毛手毛脚或过分调情。
tissue of lies 怎么翻译？
可译为“一派谎言”，强调谎话彼此勾连、不是单独一句假话。
red-hot statement 是什么意思？
指很热门、很刺激或必须马上报道的声明，不是字面上的红色。
电影里怎么用英语追问“谁该负责”？
可以问：Have you picked out somebody to be responsible?
go to press 在新闻行业里怎么用？
表示报纸即将付印或进入出版流程，常用于说明截稿时间很近。
