Suming was initially unaware of the attack on the TV station's website, but it later turned out that it was the doing of a zoo fan. After Suming left a message on Weibo pleading for mercy on behalf of the station, the cyber attack never occurred again.
Yangchuan City TV Station held a special internal meeting, and while the meeting didn't directly mention anything related to the zoo, two resolutions were announced.
First, there would be an increase in the scrutiny of news reporting. The words of the station chief were, "We are not a roadside tabloid, we should not broadcast every piece of messy gossip."
