窃听门事件

In fact, the news of the world hacking scandal has become the topic of British media cannot bypass

1.纸媒行业

1.The print industry

a)历史168年的世界新闻报---欧洲发行量最大周报，关闭，是损失，同时导致200

多人失业。------相对民众，一份报纸关闭

1.1.H istory: In 168, the news of the world, Europe's largest weekly, closed. It

is a loss and it led to more than 200 people unemployed.-- -- -- -- -- - For people, a popular newspaper shut down

1.2.英国报业程加快衰退趋势：英国报纸发行量衰减早于互联网的出现，社会进入数字时代，

互联网出现，新媒体传播方式革新飞快，英国报业程衰退趋势，受到更大冲击，却伴随竞争愈加激烈，抢占市场更加困难。作为欧洲发行量最大的周报，世界新闻报的关闭无疑是给英国报业的沉重一击。（另：在报业衰退和新技术在社会上广泛使用的背景下，出现窃听门其实并不意外）

1.2. The British’s Press recession have the trend of being accelerated: the British newspaper circulation attenuation came earlier than the emergence of the Internet. With the society develop into the digital era, the Internet appeared and new media innovated quickly. British newspaper was in the recession. As Europe's largest newspaper, the news of the world's closure is undoubtedly a heavy blow to the British newspaper. (Ps: in newspaper recession and under the background of new technology widely used in the society, appear on what actually is not a surprise)

1.3.竞争压力逐级传导，主编传记者，英国报业的工作者—记者自认受害，打击工作者积极

性

1.3.. Competitive pressure conduct step by step, the editor to the reporter-- the British newspaper workers . Their motivations were discouraged.

这是传统媒体一个时代的终结，也可能是一个新时代的开篇

This is the end of an era of the traditional media, but it can also be the beginning of a new era.

2．英媒整体

2. The whole UK media

2.1.严重影响英国媒体公信力-----此涉及英国民众

.英媒与政治纠缠不清，丧失公信力，（虽然英国首相卡梅伦极力撇清，但不可否认，他曾多次与默多克父子及高级幕僚会面，聘用世界新闻报前主编，库尔森担任媒体主管）

事实上，媒体对政治、政治家影响是一种社会自然现象，民主社会中，媒体本身为监督者角色，此次窃听门实际是从负面角度讲述，媒体与政治的关系变味，但在民主政治体系中，很难把媒体政治家完全撇开。从长远意义上，政客通过与主编会面传达政治观点并使其接受，再通过媒体，传达与英国民众。

2.1. The scandal seriously influenced the British media credibility

UK media and political had entanglements, which lead to loss of credibility. (although the British prime minister David Cameron tried to distance with the scandal, but there is no denying that he has repeatedly met with Mr. Murdoch

and his son and senior aides, hired Coulson ,former editor of news of the world, as media director)

Frankly speaking, media always influence on politics, politicians. It is a kind of social phenomenon. In a democratic society, the media itself play as a supervisor. From a negative perspective about this hacking scandal, media and political relationship was sour. But in a democratic political system, it is difficult to completely separate media with politicians. In the long term, politicians convey political views to the editor and make them accept by meeting with them. And through the media, they communicate with the British public.

2.2.新闻职业操守遭到质疑，媒体声望受损。一方面，电话窃听丑闻涉及王室、名流、体育明星、政客，受害人有一定能力，足以对抗小报，而窃听对象为普通人，甚至受害人，恶劣程度比以往更为严重，引起民众震怒。另一方面，此举侵害个人隐私，突破民众所能接受底线。

2.2. News ethics is questioned. The media reputation is under risk. On the one hand, the victim of the scandal involving the royal family, celebrities, sports stars and politicians who have a certain capacity, enough to fight the tabloids. But object for ordinary people, even the victim were more serious than the past, which cause people's wrath. On the other hand, the behavior violated privacy and people’s bottom line.

2.3.引发英媒监管机制改革。

英国报刊投诉委员会作用和职能被广泛质疑

2.3. Lead to UK media supervision mechanism reform.

Britain's press complaints commission’s role and function has been widely questioned

2.3.1.PPC改革，拥有更多资源，更多权利，媒体得到更严厉的制裁，工作更加有效率。2.3.1. PPC reformed, which means they will have more resources, more power. The media will get tougher sanctions and work more efficiently.

2.3.2.出台法律成立官方机构取代PPC，可营造公平、公正、合法的环境，英媒的权利膨胀将受到限制，媒体垄断的局面将得到改善。塑造更加有序自律有行业道德准则的英媒。

但是，冷静下来，在英国，最重要的是保护言论自由，行业性自律机构比强制性法律机构好得多，一个强制性法律机构不见得是一件好事。

此举可能意味着英国媒体的言论自由将得到很大限制。

2.3.2. A new law introduced that setting up an official agency take the place of PPC, which can build a fair, just, legal environment. Thus, the expansion of the UK media’s rights will be limited. The situation of media monopoly will be improved and a more orderly self-discipline UK media industry with code of ethics will be shaped.

Calm down, however, in Britain, the most important thing is to protect the freedom of speech, industry self-discipline mechanism is far better than mandatory legal institutions. A mandatory legal institution is not necessarily a good thing.
