Key principles in public information dissemination
The essence of news dissemination lies in its “colouring” and “no error”, which are like the positive and negative poles in the transmission of electricity, which are sorely in need of electricity to make it visible, while the negative poles need to maintain zero error. For editors of news stories, daily news dissemination must be carried out with precision and certainty。
Common errors in news coverage fall into three main categories:Political errorI don't knowFactual errorAndTechnical errorI don't know. These errors are common in daily editorial readings. In order to help colleagues better avoid these errors, the paper summarizes seven of the errors that are common in news reports, which are intended to provide a point of reference in order to be more careful in their daily writing。
Guide to common mistakes
Political error
In the press, we must strictly follow the party's doctrine and route policy to ensure the accuracy of the grand political approach and the key formulations. Any arbitrary simplification or misunderstanding could lead to serious political errors. For example, we have encountered a short version of “learning to promote the implementation of the party's 19th spirit” as “learning to the 19th spirit” or “learning to the 19th spirit” or even as “learning to the 19th spirit”, as well as a simplification of “socialist core values” and a misinterpretation of “breeding both”。
In addition, in the submissions of business correspondents, there is a tendency to confuse “quality development” with “high speed”, which is mistaken for “high quality development”。
The procedural and normative language of the conference is crucial. The coverage of the meeting, in particular the two sessions, covered a wide range of policy and procedural issues that required careful treatment. The handling of key words and normative terms appears to be particularly critical in the coverage, with minor inaccuracies that may lead to political errors. For example, the inappropriate analogy between “china” and “thai hong kong/australia”, or the general reference to “states and others” between certain countries and taiwan, can create serious misunderstandings and political risks。
We must be extra careful in news reporting, especially when it comes to sensitive topics such as national religions, to avoid any errors. Such topics were highly sensitive and any imprudent action could lead to unnecessary controversy and misunderstanding. For example, when dealing with the abbreviated names of minority autonomous districts, we must strictly follow the norms and avoid misleading the reader. In the case of the “cyanlong mang autonomous district”, the acronym should be “cyanlong” rather than “cyanlong county”. At the same time, there is a need for greater understanding and strict adherence to national religious taboos and customs to ensure that every detail is accurate。
Factual and technical errors
The essential elements of information cannot be ignored. The accuracy of the basic elements, such as names, place names, unit names, time, etc., is crucial in news coverage. Editors must be vigilant in handling this information to ensure that each detail is accurate. These are also areas of high error, and any oversight can lead to serious consequences。
In terms of names, for example, we must ensure consistency and avoid the appearance of zhang li. At the same time, sensitive information such as the name of the party body, the name of the office, etc., needs to be rigorously verified to ensure that it is used correctly。
We also often encounter problems in terms of numbers and units of measurement, such as unit omissions, misuse of numbers, etc. These seemingly minor problems may have a serious impact on the accuracy of the news coverage。
Therefore, in our press coverage, we must always be rigorous and ensure that every detail is affordable. Only then can we provide accurate and reliable information to readers。
Accuracy of essential elements
Advocacy by the authorities is essential, and editors must be kept informed and strictly followed in order to avoid the misuse of prohibited terms. For example, normative terms such as the “one-way road” initiative, the kyouta joint development and beijing and zhang jiaguchi's joint organization of the winter olympics must be used with precision。
Use of terms and symbols
The accuracy of words and words is essential. In press reports, any technical error may affect the accurate delivery of information. Questions such as miswords, multiple words and missing words not only affect the consistency of statements, but are more likely to mislead readers and create misunderstandings. Journalists must therefore strictly close their doors to ensure that every word is accurate. At the same time, attention must also be paid to the nuances of the terms in the sense of proximity and to avoiding confusion in their use. It is also important to avoid the use of inappropriate words, misphrases or logic in statements to ensure accuracy and readability of news reports。
Punctuations must be used with caution. In writing, the use of punctual symbols is often overlooked, yet its importance cannot be ignored. Typical use errors include: a comma at the end, i. E. Only one comma in a long sentence, without the necessary pause; improper use of quotation marks, such as the omission of the quotation, which should not be quoted; misplacement of the period in the quotation, which affects the integrity of the phrase; and improper use of doms, such as the wrongful insertion of the dom between consecutive quotation marks and book names。
These errors affect the fluidity and accuracy of statements. Therefore, when using the logo, we must strictly observe the rules to ensure their correctness。
