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
