新聞自由是一個相對的詞。我認為,第一,新聞應(yīng)該不受限制。第二新聞應(yīng)該對社會負責。第三,新聞應(yīng)該促進社會穩(wěn)定與進步。這三方面互為聯(lián)系,同等重要,不可分割。片面強調(diào)某一方面會帶來問題因而是有害的。
Freedom of the press is a relative term. In my opinion, firstly, the press should be unrestrained. Secondly, the press should be responsible to society and thirdly, the press should promote social stability and progrss. The three aspects are integrated, equally important and inseparable. It is harmful to one-sidedly strss only one aspect as this would cause some problems.
美國也曾經(jīng)面臨過這樣的局面:最初極其崇尚自由主義。而對自由主義的強調(diào)不當,造成了濫用新聞自由概念的結(jié)果。這是新聞理論發(fā)展的第一階段。后來美國新聞業(yè)發(fā)現(xiàn)了問題,于是提出了負責任的新聞這個概念,或者叫做社會責任理論。新聞理論的發(fā)展于是進入了第二個發(fā)展階段?,F(xiàn)在世界已進入了一個和平與發(fā)展的后冷戰(zhàn)時期。全世界人民都渴望有一個穩(wěn)定的、進步與和平發(fā)展的社會環(huán)境。他們真誠地希望媒體在促進社會穩(wěn)定與進步方面發(fā)揮更大作用,不要引起社會動蕩與退步。我認為這個后冷戰(zhàn)時期標志著新聞理論進入了第三個發(fā)展時期。我認為目前中國的傳播媒體正在努力實現(xiàn)我前面所想的三點。
The united states once faced the situation: it had much sustain for liberalism at the very beginning. However, its undue emphasis on the society resulted an excessive abuse of the freedom of the press. This was the period of the development of the press theory. Later on, the America press perceived their own problems and therefore put forward the concept of the responsible press or the theory of social responsibility, bringing the development of the press theory into the second period of development. Now the world has entered the post-cold war period of peace and development. People all over the world yearn for social environment characterized by stability, progrss, and peaceful development. They earnestly hope the media will play an even greater role in promoting social stability and progrss instead of causing social turbulence and retrogression. This post-cold war period,I believe, characterizes the emerging third period of development for the press theory. In my opinion, china’s media is strving to put the three aspects I mentioned earlier into pratice.
西方媒體對中國的許多報導是不正確的,有時是非常不客觀的,是非常不公正的。西方報紙很少報導中國的發(fā)展。他們感興趣的不是中國的快速進步,而是存在的困難和問題。如果人們只依據(jù)這些報導,無視中國的現(xiàn)實,那么中國在他們的腦海里便是一個很快就要垮臺的社會。而事實恰恰相反,中國是一個非常穩(wěn)定的社會,是一個快速發(fā)展的國家。
Many of the reports on china by the media of the west are not acurate and sometimes very unobjective and very unfair. Reports on china’s development are rarely seen in weatern newspapers. They show littleconcer for china’s rapid progress but care only about the difficulties and problems. If one rely only on those reports and ignore the reality of china, the picture of china in one’s mind would be a society soon to callapse. But quite on the contrary, china is a very stable society and economically rapid growing country.
