作为策略性仪式的新闻透明性:一种新职业规范的兴起、实践与争议Journalistic Transparency as Strategic Ritual: The Emergence, Practice and Controversy of a New Professional Norm
白红义,雷悦雯
摘要(Abstract):
随着数字新闻业的发展,透明性作为一种重要的职业规范正在新闻业界得到一定程度的贯彻,也激起了新闻学者们的研究兴趣。在新闻透明性从理念向实践的转化过程中,新闻应该如何透明成为必须厘清的问题。本文将以“策略性仪式”为核心概念,结合现有研究文献讨论透明性如何应用于新闻实践并成为新闻生产中的惯例,以及实践中的透明性与透明性理念的差异,从而更深入地理解工作中的透明性(transparency at work),推动新闻透明性在理论层面的进一步探讨与反思。
