“为报道真实新闻而奋斗”,这是周恩来同志解放初期给一个报纸的题词。它理当成为每一个新闻工作者的座右铭。自从党的十一届三中全会以来,经过拨乱反正,新闻界积极维护新闻的真实性原则,成绩是显著的。但是,浮夸、作表面文章、报喜不报忧,甚至弄虚作假等形形色色的失实现象,至今仍屡见不鲜。其危害所及,不仅使党的新闻事业丧失威信,更为严重的是,它直接影响到党和政府的声誉,影响到党、政府和人民群众的联系。我们必须坚持不懈地“为报道真实新闻而奋斗”。为此,本刊这一期比较集中地选登有关维护新闻真实性原则的文章,以期有助于提高新闻队伍的思想与业务素质,有助于提高写真事、说真话的自觉性。 “Striving for reporting on the real news,” is the inscription given to a newspaper by Comrade Zhou Enlai during the liberation. It should be the motto of every journalist. Since the Third Plenary Session of the Eleventh Central Committee of the Communist Party of China, the media has actively maintained the principle of authenticity of the news after the order was disarranged. The achievements have been remarkable. However, it is not uncommon for all kinds of inaccuracies such as exaggerating, making superficial essays, announcing news of good news, or even resorting to fraud. Its harm not only loses the credibility of the party’s journalism, but more seriously, it directly affects the reputation of the party and the government and the links between the party, the government and the people. We must unswervingly “work hard to cover the real news.” To this end, our issue of this issue focuses on the maintenance of the authenticity of news articles, with a view to help improve the ideological and professional quality of the press team, help to improve the story of writing, to tell the truth the truth.
