Interpreting the news
The newspaper must provide for the reader the facts, unalloyed (纯粹的), unslanted (不偏不倚的), objectively selected facts.(46). This is the most important assignment confronting American journalism—to make clear to the reader the problems of the day, to make international news as understandable as community news, to recognize that there is no longer any such thing(with the possible exception of such scribblings (乱写一气的东西) as society and club news) as "local" news, because any event in the international area has a local reaction in manpower draft, in economic strain, in terms, indeed, of our very way of life.
There is in journalism a widespread view that when you embark on interpretation, you are entering rough and dangerous waters, the swirling tides of opinion.(47).
The opponents of interpretation insist that the writer and the editor shall confine himself to the "facts." This insistence raises two questions: What are the facts?(48).
As to the first question, consider how a so-called, "factual" story comes about. The reporter collects, say, fifty facts, out of these fifty, his space allocation being necessarily restricted, he selects the ten which he considers most important. This is Judgment No. 1. Then he or his editor decides which of these ten facts shall constitute the lead of the piece. This is Judgment No. 2. Then the night editor determines whether the article shall be presented on page one, where it has a large impact, or on twenty-four where it has little. Judgment No. 3.
(49). And they are judgments no at all unlike those involved in interpretation, in which reporter and editor, calling upon their research resources, their general background, and their "news neutralism," arrive at a conclusion as to the significance of the news.
The two areas of judgment, presentation of the news and its interpretation, are both objective rather than subjective processes—as objective, that, is as any human can be. If an editor is intent on slanting the news, he can do in other ways and more effectively than by interpretation.(50). Or he can do it by the play he gives a story-promoting it to page one or demoting it to page thirty.
A.He can do it by the selection of those facts that prop up his particular plea.
B.But in these days of complex news it must provide more, it must supply interpretation, the meaning of the facts.
C.Thus, in the presentation of a so-called "factual" or "objective" story, at least three judgments are involved.
D.This is nonsense.
E.Through this interpretation, we can easily know the meaning of the news.
F.And: Are the bare facts enough?
选项
