与此同时,CNN却不断被其更为尖锐的竞争对手攻城略地。在CNN鼎盛时期,前CNN雇员Griffin认为CNN还固守着其无利害关系的公平之锚,无法跟上时代的脚步。而CNN的管理编辑Mark Whitaker则表示反对,他认为他们频道一直以来秉承公正的精神,拒绝廉价的观点,同时比其他竞争对手提供更为广泛的全球性报道。 在这个时代,我们都应当有自己的观点,但这些观点不见得都来自于潜在的意识形态, 他说。
The idea that journalists should be impartial in reporting news is a relatively recent one. A lotof newspaper people treat it as one true religion, when its an artefact of a certain set ofeconomic and historical circumstances, says Joshua Benton of the Nieman Journalism Lab.Americas Founding Fathers nurtured a vibrant, fiercely partisan press with no licensing ofnewspapers or policing of content. During the 19th century newspapers gradually adopted amore objective stance, for several reasons. By appealing to a wider audience, they were ableto increase their circulation and hence their advertising revenue. Consolidation, and theemergence of local newspaper monopolies, also promoted impartiality. When you are theonly paper in town, you cant risk pissing off liberals by being too conservative, or vice versa,says Mr Benton.
要求记者在报道中的公正性是近期才出现的观点。 许多资讯人将其作为真正的职业信条,而这一信条其实只是一系列经济和历史条件下的人工产物。 尼曼资讯实验室的Joshua Benton这样说。美利坚合众国的创始人所建立的是具有强烈党派性的,充满活力的媒体,对于资讯媒体没有资质审查或内容限制。19世纪,出于多种理由,资讯媒体逐渐开始秉持更为客观的立场。通过吸引更多的受众,他们可以增加报纸销量,从而提高广告收入。媒体的间的兼并地方媒体大亨的出现更加促进了资讯的公正性。如果你是镇上的唯一一家媒体,你不可能过分坚持保守主义而冒险去惹怒那些自由主义者,反过来也一样。Benton先生说。
