西方国家的新闻媒介作为社会正义的守护者,具有强烈的公共性;但与此同时,现代媒介也是一个产业,其自身的商业性也不可忽视。公共性与商业性都对媒介开展监督提供了动力。我们在对西方国家媒介的公共性加以关注的同时,也要看到其商业性的过度发展所带来的负面效应,这也为我国媒介监督的发展提供了借鉴。 As a guardian of social justice, Western media have strong publicity. At the same time, however, modern media is also an industry, and its own commercial nature can not be ignored. Both public and commercial power provide impetus to the media. While we pay close attention to the publicity of Western media, we must also see the negative effects brought by the over-development of the business. This also provides reference for the development of media supervision in our country.
