An amateur reporter who has been an intern of the Southern Metropolis Daily for three months said that it is really not easy to insist on "press freedom" and the conscience of journalists. Those who can persist until the end are not heroes and become martyrs, such as the one who exposed waste oil. Reporter, don't mention his name, how many people remember, or even know, such a person? I also remembered the reporter who reported the Sun Zhigang incident. Where is he now? These behind-the-scenes heroes deserve to be honored and remembered. Today, many reporters are keen to make unannounced visits to the porn industry because they are more gimmicks than news ideals. If they really want to make news, they will make unannounced visits to underground black factories for gambling, drug and pyramid schemes, but obviously they have no seeds!
I remember when I took a point-and-shoot camera and went to a black intermediary to help a pair of migrant workers and brothers and sisters were almost beaten by the triad, secretly visited the "Water Children's Group" at the Guangzhou Railway Station, and contacted a drug dealer from a minority group at Wangshengtang in Sanyuanli. It is blatantly selling drugs, someone passing by may say "do you want the goods", just like those who tell you "do you want a mobile phone/laptop" on the street), dealing with pirated pornographic vendors, staying in the train station area The slaughterhouse of the black hotel, the "ruthless" fight with the female clerk of the black shop in the train station, and the unannounced visit to the red light district in Tangxia Chengzhong Village (the original was also done at that time, but the starting point was very pure at that time, I just felt that this phenomenon was exposed. Coming out can purify the air of the society, etc. You must know that there was basically no news of unannounced visits to the red light district and young ladies on the newspapers and TV in those days. It is not because the red light district and young ladies are rare, but the subject matter is more sensitive.
I miss that idealistic self, but it was those three months that made me realize that I was not suitable to be a reporter. Too much gloom, too much powerlessness, too upright Boy, enough to destroy me. Later, a few people in our class persisted and became reporters, either in the real estate market, tourism, or finance and economics, or transformed into half editors and half reporters, or directly as editors, and some jumped from reporters to housewives. , Mobile reporters (frontline reporters) are a no more!
Suddenly I thought of Anne Hathaway, who deserved Meryl Streep's back smile.
