一位作家这么说:史学家留下了历史的躯壳,而文学家应当留下历史的灵魂。 那么记者呢?难道历史允许记者缺席? 不,记者留下的是历史的血肉。 事实,真实的事实,是构成历史的最基本的元素。记者发现和传播事实的作用不可替代。而且,记者可以有史学家的理智,可以有文学家的激情,那么历史便在记者的笔下丰富完整了。法拉奇有过一部专著,就叫做《采访历史》,它的历史价值得到世界范围的肯定。 One writer put it this way: historians have left the body of history, and writers should leave behind the soul of history. So what about the reporters? Did history allow the reporters to be absent? No, the reporters left the flesh and blood of history. Facts, real facts, constitute the most basic element of history. The role of journalists in discovering and disseminating facts is irreplaceable. Moreover, journalists can have the intellectuals historians can have the passion of the writer, then history in the reporter’s pen rich and complete. Fallaci had a monograph, called “interview history,” and its historical value has been affirmed worldwide.
