They should apologize for falsely accusing you

Guess you're kinda famous now? :badpokerface:
This would be good for your next charity event, which could attract more attention and raise more money haha

If they dont take the video down which is still up i will press charges, this is acctually BS... makes me seem like a "notorious" racer... I was caught once because I was associated not even racing for crying out loud.. sorry for the rant.. just thought my fellow car guys would understand... lol

I understand, It sucks to be guilty by association.

I think you deserve a public apology
It wasn't just word or mouth. It was aired to the public with picture of your face.
It's pretty fucked up ctv automatically assumed it was you based on last name

WHAT TO DO???

dared3vil0 02-19-2013 09:52 PM

I still stand by sue. If nothing else, Just to show them they can't do this.

fliptuner 02-19-2013 09:52 PM

Since CTV fucked up, call Global.

Purely 02-19-2013 09:57 PM

I would say a public apology is a must... and even +1 for sueing/letting them know they can't do this.

The video is still not taken off yet..

Kidnapman 02-19-2013 09:59 PM

thats fucken bullshit. DOOOOOOO IT Matt. No one fucks around with an RSer and gets away with it.:devil:

Sue and donate to charity ... say an organization that combats street racing ?

You should make ctv pay for their mistake one way or another. They are like a fucking tabloid. I think misinformation is a requirement for any stories they feature.

hongy 02-19-2013 11:01 PM

Not sure what you guys are talking about, if you go on the ctv news site it still appears to be about matt zhang, even has a picture of his car up.

video still up. you think using it as a cover photo is a fair game when he isnt even the driver that they are reporting about?

also, it wasnt just a cover photo. they actually put the photo up of him standing next to his r8 and saying he was the driver.

hpw912 02-19-2013 11:57 PM

sue them.

i know i saw the video and i saw them use his face thats why i told him to sue their ass

i couldn't find the video scrolling through the video selections

cover picture is fair game because they covered his license plate ... so it could be ANYONE's r8 and that picture could be floating around the internet so you can't do shit

160km is considered "extraordinarily high speed"? . .... :rukidding:

This is very irresponsible from CTV, and shows a lack of due diligence in their journalism. Matt, did you speak with them directly? Sometimes they will issue a retraction.
