Should journalists include personal perspectives in their reporting?

Personally, I think the answer should definitely be that there should be no personal opinions, but the truth is that this is almost impossible to do, no matter how sacred and glorious the profession of a journalist should sound, but in the end, he (she) must be a member of the human race, and the work he or she does (writing text or taking images) is itself a collection of opinions, so no matter how the journalist avoids it, it is basically impossible to achieve complete objectivity, and if it is really done, it can only be done by machines. As with the camera eye theory, even though the camera may be the best tool for reproducing the reality of the scene, when the person operating the camera chooses the image he wants to capture, he is already adding his own subjective opinion. Not to mention the more imaginative words.

So for this reason, it seems impossible for journalists to avoid the inclusion of personal opinions.

No, I don't know how a journalist should report an event, but I think reporters are also human beings, everyone is flawed, they have their own ideas, I personally think that a journalist is a person who records an event, no matter what he thinks about the event, he should first fulfill his duties, objectively and comprehensively report the truth of the incident as much as possible, instead of taking his own strong personal color on the report before clarifying the facts.

In the development of news ** to this day, the main purpose of adding comments to the report is to trigger the audience's thinking and **, and form the value-added and rolling of information and content, rather than to "please the audience". A senior in the ** industry once said a sentence that I have always used to warn myself: there is never a shortage of opinions in this world, only a lack of reports.

After you have done a good job of reporting, it is better to consider the issue of opinions. This is a big premise.

Whether the report needs to be commented on is not the reporter's decision, but the style, responsibility, nature of the content and social status of the **. In Europe and the United States, independent reports generally do not include any commentary, while reports with a unit (i.e., ** itself) background bring in comments for various purposes. However, so far, reports that do not involve political factors will basically have comments, because this is a trend that a considerable part of the audience likes to see abroad.

Of course, it shouldn't be, the work of reporters will be interfered with in all aspects, and the reasons are diverse, including the factors of the reporter's own professionalism, the factors of the current industry system that has been formed in China's news industry, and the factors of different self-positioning, etc., which will not be repeated here, some of these reasons can be avoided by individual reporters, and some can not be changed by individual reporters or even a single reporter, so this is also a very helpless thing.

It's not so much about whether it should or not, it's basically inevitable in reality. Even if it seems to be a completely objective statement of facts, a journalist can lead the audience's point of view by changing the angle of the story and selectively stating some of the facts, and complete objectivity and neutrality are impossible.

Generally speaking, journalists should not include their own opinions in their reporting, but journalists can convey their opinions more objectively by selectively reporting on facts. Whether or not to include it is probably a matter of formality, and all reports are tendentious.

The basic feature of the report is objectivity, so there is no problem for the reporter to face the objectivity of the report, the key is to follow the basic characteristics of the report, the relevant explanation is as follows:

The principle of objectivity in news reporting is still the dominant news reporting concept in the American press circles, and China has had many criticisms and misunderstandings about this concept in the past. With the development of China's marketization and the advent of the era of globalization, the principle of objectivity has become a reporting method that the Chinese press should learn, so it is of great research significance to deepen this concept and clarify related issues. From a longitudinal perspective, the historical context of the principle of objectivity in news reporting can be divided into six stages in the historical development of the concept in the United States.

Before the thirties of the 19th century, the principle of objectivity did not appear, but the objective element inherited from the rational journalistic concept of the European Enlightenment had already emerged in the United States.

Depending on the situation, the first thing to attract readers is to consider.

A journalist is engaged in the work of news gathering. We usually see news reports that we usually see reporters interviewing outside the country to contact the people involved in the news. So how many people know about the profession of journalists? Today, the Journalists' Day special topic will tell you what it means to be a journalist?

Because journalists have the power to read and listen, they are also known as the uncrowned king.

Generally speaking, journalists mainly work in newspapers, television stations, radio stations, magazines, news agencies, etc. After the advent of the Internet, there were also some reporters who worked for the Internet** (network newspapers) or professionals**.

Personal factors, referring to the communicator, referring to the communicator. In other words, there are many differences in the conditions of individual communicators, which leads to differences in news screening and checks, which affects news screening.

First, worldview and values; second, personality traits; Third, the way in which individuals disseminate it. 3. Professional ethics of journalists (2) Social responsibility. As social information transmitters, journalists should regard serving the public as their highest professional pursuit.

It is necessary to strictly abide by laws and regulations, do a good job as a "gatekeeper" of news, and be a responsible person.
