近日,全世界媒體對國際奧委會默認中國仍然局部封網的政策可謂一片嘩然。根據記者在中國內地各地區了解,德國之聲中文網已經基本解封,解封的還有 BBC 中文網、維基百科等。
北京奧組委的發言人孫偉德表示,外國記者將獲得“充分”的信息來源。但什麽是充分?
我們承認,每個國家都有一些網頁受到屏蔽,從兒童色情內容到右翼極端組織的網站,但是不會封鎖象大赦國際,德國之聲, BBC 這樣的合法信息網站。毫無疑問,網絡是記者搜集信息的重要渠道,所以這方麵的限製必須取消。不然,什麽叫做充分?而且,是否充分,我認為,應該由記者自己來判斷,是否擁有充分的信息資源,而不是由擁有權力的官方來定義。

this is not an appropriate forum to discuss how i keep connected with the world, but i don't depend on cnn, bbc, or cctv to feed what i want to know. let's stay on topic ...
how convenient for you to say that incidents don't count! this whole thread was started because of an incident. the original blogger made a storm in his tea cup for what was really not essential in the grand scheme of things for China.
track record? i didn't mention it at all. what track record? percentage of news truthfulness? then, cctv track record is absolutely better than bbc or cnn. it just doesn't report what you in particular want to know about China. that doesn't make its track record bad at all.
by the way, if you are not interested in those "incidents", why not look at the bigger picture? that is, China is making progresses and getting better every day in most aspects (including freedom of speech etc).

Your comparison makes no sense. Western media is highly commercialized. People watch TV for fun and fresh information mostly, not for political correctness (that's why as I see many Americans here are so naive at politics).

Oh, forgot to ask you: what would you watch for the world news then?
Bali 發表評論於
Shousheng, I referred to BBC in a broad sense. It could be CNN vs. CCTV, ABC vs. CCTV, Reuters vs. CCTV and etc. In your view, are agencies such as CNN, ABC, Reuters also of zero value or are you just against BBC?
It is pointless to center the argument on any one particular incident. I have already admitted that 中國沒有絕對新聞自由. 西方也沒有絕對新聞自由. In any case, you are going to loose if you start talking about track record. For example, did you know from CCTV or any Chinese newspaper at the time how many people died during the 3 year famine? Did you know at the time how many innocent people were killed by Khmer Rouge?
I am not here to convince anyone which news is better, and I couldn't care less about what people choose.

回複Bali的評論: if I wanted to know what is going on in the world, i would watch neither. of course, it is your freedom to choose a news organization using an 8-year old picture to depict what is happening in China right now, but don't try to convince people that is better. In particular, in the view of what is helpful to China ultimately, BBC is of zero value.

請大家為“新聞自由”歌頌!

Cheng 1616, you are right, 中國沒有絕對新聞自由. 西方也沒有絕對新聞自由. If you want to know what's going on around the world, and if you can only choose one, which news would you watch? BBC or CCTV? I know which one I would watch.
