参考译文
在民主国家里,任何限制新闻自由的企图都理所当然地受到谴责。
不过,这种自由很容易被滥用。
常人轶事往往比政治事件更能引起公众注意。
我们都喜欢看关于别人生活的报道,但是否同样喜欢看关于自己生活的报道,就很难说了。
记者按事实至上的论点行事,发表相关别人生活的细节,有时会给当事人造成极大的痛苦。
新闻具有巨大
的威力。
它们不但能够给寻常人家的生活带来重大的变化,甚至还能*一个政府。
下面这户穷人一夜之间知名发财的故事戏剧性地说明了新闻报道
威力。
这户人家住在南达科他州一个人口为23,000的小镇上,镇名为阿拜丁。
家里已有5个孩子,全家人常年在贫困中挣扎。
第6个孩子即将问世,他们面临着更为严峻的经济问题。
如果他们只添了1个
孩子,这件事本来就不会引起任何人的注意。
这家人会继续为克服经济上的拮据而奋斗,并默默无闻地活下去。
但是他们出人意料生了个五胞胎,4女1男。
这事使他们的生活发生了根本的变化。
五胞胎降生第二天,一架飞机飞抵阿拜丁,随机带来60名记者与摄影师。
这个家迅速出了名。
电视摄像机和报纸把消息传送到全国。
报纸、
杂志出高价向他们购置文字、图片的报道权。
不但素昧平生的人寄来了大量的礼物,而且婴儿食品、婴儿肥皂制造厂商为了替自己产品做
广告也寄来了大量的礼物。
这家人住的旧家舍将由一座价值50万美元的新住宅所取代。
因为记者纷纷要求会见,他们不得不请了律师充当
他们家的发言人举行记者招待会。
眼下,五胞胎还静静地躺在医院婴
儿室的氧气帐里,他们的父母却为这名声付出了代价,他们再也无法过正常的生活。
他们成了商业化的受害者,因为他们的名字具有了市场价值。
这些孩子立即成了商品,而不是5个新的家庭成员。
