近年来“新闻官司”增多,新闻界对报道中的法律问题已开始关注。因为许多新闻报道,特别是社会新闻,都会涉及“法”的问题。人们常常抱怨执法机关或领导干部“有法不依”、“违法不究”。其实,新闻界一些同志本身“法”的意识也很淡漠,翻开报纸、杂志;打开收音机、电视机,各种各样的“不依法”、“不合法”,甚至“违了法”的现象并不少见。只是当前人们一般不去探究直接涉及个人利害之外的新闻报道中的“法”的问题,加之这类问题又多半属于常识性的原因造成,因而也就很少引起“官司”。但是,这样的报道对民主与法制的建设是不利的。而且影响到新闻界本身的声誉。对这问题作些探讨,以期及早引起更多的注意,可能不无益处。 In recent years, “lawsuits” have increased, and the press has begun to pay attention to the legal issues covered in the report. Because many news reports, especially social news, involve the issue of “law.” People often complain that law enforcement agencies or leading cadres “do not act according to law,” and “violate laws and regulations.” In fact, some comrades in the media themselves are also very indifferent in their awareness of the “law,” turning newspapers and magazines on. They have also turned on radio and television sets, and various “illegal,” “illegal” and even “illegal” Phenomenon is not uncommon. It is only that the present people generally do not explore the issue of “law” in news reports that directly concern personal interests, and most of these problems are often caused by common sense, thus seldom cause “lawsuits.” However, such reports are unfavorable to the construction of democracy and the legal system. But also the reputation of the press itself. It may not be useful to have some discussion on this issue so as to attract more attention earlier.
