当前,我国社会正处于改革发展,社会转型的关键时期,这一时期,媒体能否充分发挥自己的作用,取决于媒体对新闻自由的把握以及政府对媒体处理新闻事件的支持态度。因此,媒体要更好地实现公众参与,更有效地监督政府,更充分地发挥人民群众的积极性和创造性,使人民与政府能够通过对话达成共识与团结。 At present, our society is in a crucial period of reform and social transformation. Whether the media can fully play its role during this period depends on the media’s hold on press freedom and the government’s support of the media in handling news events. Therefore, the media should better achieve public participation, supervise the government more effectively, give full play to the enthusiasm and creativity of the people, and enable the people and the government to reach consensus and unity through dialogue.
