日本媒体自律精神的成因

Self-disciplined Japanese Media

2011年3月11日日本东部海域发生9.0级强烈地震并引发海啸,继而发生核泄漏和核废水排放超标。面对灾难,日本的媒体表现出前所未有的新闻专业主义和媒体自律精神,引起全球新闻业的关注,尤其是在疏导民众、安定人心、维持社会秩序以及保证政府的政策顺利实施等方面起到了不可估量的作用。从中可以看出日本媒体实际上是在一个看不见的却又是无时不在的强大的磁场下被控制着,其中有着历史和文化的原因,也有着政府的控制和管理的原因,但是,更重要的还是因为日本的媒体是一个企业化的管理模式,势必会打上企业文化的烙印。

A magnitude 9.0 earthquake hit Japang eastern coast on March 11 th, 2011 and triggered tsunami, resulting in nuclear leak and excessive discharge of nuclear liquid waste. Confronting with the calamity, Japan ＂s media showed unprecedented professionalism and self-disciplined spirit while reporting, which drew attention from global journalism, playing crucial roles in leading the masses, releasing them from disasters, stabilizing social orders and smoothening implementation of government＇s policies. We could reveal Japans media was under the control from a powerful, but invisible magnetic field in which government the state apparatus controlled and managed culturally and historically. However, the more important remains the media followed an enterprise management and imprinted itself with enterprise culture.
