从坠机报道看韩国“新闻伦理”

“Journalistic Ethics” in South Korea as Reflected in Reports of the 4·15 Plane Crash

20 0 2年 4月 15日上午 11点 2 3分 ,中国国际航空公司的CA12 9航班在釜山市附近不幸坠毁。机上 16 6名旅客(其中韩国旅客 135人 )除 36位幸存者外全部遇难。事件发生后 ,韩国新闻媒体对空难进行了大量报道 ,其中夹杂了许多不合“新闻伦理”的报道。面对新闻界众多“非伦理”现象 ,韩国新闻界锐意改革 ,出台了一系列措施 ,尽管这些措施对改善“新闻伦理”有一定作用 ,但却不可能从根本上消除“非伦理”现象 ,不可能从根本上改变韩国“新闻伦理”窘迫的现状。

At 11∶23 a.m,April 15,2002,Flight CA129 of Air China crashed near Busan. 130 passengers were killed. After the incident,the South Korean media made extensive reports of the air disaster, many of which failed to abide by “journalistic ethics”. Facing all these “ethical problems”,the South Korean press circles were determined to carry out a reform and took a series of measures. Although they can improve “journalistic ethics” to some extent,these measures cannot eliminate all the “ethical problems” and completely change the embarrassing situation of “journalistic ethics” in South Korea.
