The newspaper must provide for the reader the facts, objectively selected facts. But in these days of complex news it must provide more; it must supply interpretation, the meaning of the facts. 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 as "local" news, because any event in the international area has a local reaction in terms of our very way of life.
There is in journalism a widespread view that when you start interpretation, you are entering dangerous waters, the swirling tides of opinion. This is nonsense.
Those who are against interpretation insist that the writer and the editor shall confine himself to the "facts". This insistence raises two questions., what are the facts? And: are bare facts enough?
As to the first, consider how a so-called "factual" story comes about. The reporter collects, say, fifty facts. Then he selects the ten which he considers most important. This is Judgment Number One. Then he or his editor decides which of these ten facts shall constitute the lead of the piece. This is Judgment Number Two. Then the night editor determines whether the article shall be presented on Page One, where it has a large impact, or on Page Twenty-four, where it has little. This is Judgment Number Three.
Thus in the presentation of a so-called "factual" or "objective" story, at least three judgments are involved. And they are judgments not 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. [br] Which of the following can best express the author’s attitude toward objectiveness?
选项
A、There exists no absolute objectiveness in news writing or reporting.
B、To interpret the news is a way to be objective for the readers.
C、Objectiveness is controlled by editors rather than writers.
D、Poorly choosing facts prepares a solid ground for objectiveness.
答案
A
解析
该题是推断题。选项D显而易见是错误的。从第二段可判断选项B是错误的,作者并不认为对新闻加以解释就是客观的。选项C不符合原文,编辑控制的版面安排而非客观性。综观全文,可知作者对所谓的新闻客观持不赞同态度,新闻必然涉及主观因素,纯粹的客观是不存在的。故选A)。
