新闻评论中有一种普遍存在的事实材料,一般置于评论的开头部分,用以“挑开话题”。这类事实材料一般新闻性、时效性都比较强,尽管它们并不一定是评论要分析和判断的对象。它们在业内被称作“新闻由头”。比如,原人民日报评论员范荣康的《新闻评论学》中所说,“多数新闻评论,不过是拿新闻作‘由头’,从新闻生发开去议论带有普遍性的问题”。 There is a ubiquitous fact sheet in the news commentary that is usually placed at the beginning of the commentary to “pick a topic off.” Such factual materials are generally newsworthy and time-sensitive, although they are not necessarily the objects of the commentary to be analyzed and judged. They are known in the industry as “news headlines.” For example, the original People’s Daily commentator Fan Rongkang’s “Journalism Review” said that “most news commentary is nothing more than taking news as a ’head start’ to discuss the issue of universality from the news.”
