Summary:
The article states the tragic incident that Kim Kardashian faced in France who was attending a French fashion show. 5 men pretended to be police-men, made their way into her hotel room, and when she finished her dinner, she entered her room with being held at gun-point. The men had gagged her and then locked her in a bathroom, and then ran off with over £9 million worth of jewellery. The safeguard had led the 'police officers' to her exact room as they stated that it was an 'urgent' situation.
Statistics:
- the flat in which Kim Kardashian was living at was worth up to £25,000 per night
- £9 million worth of goods (including gold and jewellery) was stolen during the heist
Own view:
The article shows how social media had a major impact in the incident taking place,as Kim was tweeting and posting images of her wealth to the public making her a big target for criminals. The article shows one of the major negatives of social media, as it can lead to criminal actives to take place. The reason why this is linked with NDM, is because it shows the alternative view point of the digital platform and how it hold negative things as well as positives.
