CNN辟谣:波士顿马拉松爆炸案的五大谣言

2013-04-18来源:CNN

Man planned to propose, girlfriend killed
男子计划终点线求婚,女朋友却被炸死

Among the many gripping images to emerge from the bombing's aftermath was one of a man in a red shirt, kneeling on the ground cradling a woman in his arms. It went viral -- with a heartbreaking, but fake, story attached.
爆炸案发生后出现了众多引人注意的照片,其中有一张拍的是,一名穿红色衬衣的男子跪在地上,手臂抱着一名女性。这张图片迅速传开,但是人们给它加上了一个令人心碎却不实的故事。

"The man in the red shirt planned to propose to his girlfriend as he crossed the finish line of the Boston Marathon, but she passed away" it reads. "Most of us will never experience this amount of emotional pain."
“穿红色衬衣的男子计划在跨过波士顿马拉松比赛终点线后向女朋友求婚,但她却过世了”,故事写道,“我们中的大多数人永远不会体会到那样深重的情感痛苦。”

The image is, in fact, real. It comes from the Boston Globe and was shared through Getty Images. But the agency's caption merely describes the scene as a man comforting an injured woman at the finish line.
实际上,图片是真实的,来自《波士顿环球报》,通过盖蒂图片社分享到网络上。但图片社的图片说明只是称:那是一名男子在终点线安慰一名受伤女子。

That didn't stop it from making the rounds in a big way. A somewhat misleading Facebook account pretending to represent actor Will Ferrell (it calls itself a "parody" but has 385,000 likes) shared the post. By Tuesday morning, the picture had more than 448,000 "likes" and had been shared over 92,000 times.
这个事实并没有阻止“求婚”说法大量传播。一个冒充好莱坞演员威尔·法瑞尔的Facebook账号转发了这张图片(该账号自称是恶搞,却有385000个“赞”)。至周二早上,这张图片已有448,000个“赞”,被分享超过92,000次。
