(1)My job is to provide relevant, factually accurate information that is interesting, useful and entertaining to my readers, be they Brainstorm or ITWeb readers.
(2)My job is not to get your corporate message across. If you want to get your corporate message out to the market take an advertisement, or, failing that, do a good enough job that your clients get your message and spread it for you, then you wouldn’t be so desperate that you have to attempt to force me to do it.
(3)Secondly, my job is to take information from any sources as I feel are relevant or necessary, and process it into one smooth, seamless story that makes sense, and is easy and pleasant to read. It is not my job to print every single word of jargon and marketing waffle that spews from your lips. Should you choose to spew jargon and marketing waffle during an interview, it will not be used. Try plain, simple English in future.
(4)What my job reminds me of is to use comments and quotes! that provide knowledge and insight, not to use anything you have said merely because you have said it. What I use and what I do not use in a story is my privilege. Should I choose not to use your quote there is nothing you can do about it.
(5)Further, my job is to write stories that my readers want to read, thus keeping the magazine or website’s ideas alive and kicking, and thus providing advertisers with an audience to advertise to. Should I write what you want me to write my readers will stop reading and you will have no vehicle for your marketing and advertising.
(6)Additionally, should you have a hissy fit and threaten to pull your ads, or never advertise again, because I ran a story you did not like, or did not use your quotes, or looked at you funny when you were having a bad day, you are not going to get a sympathetic response. You will get a positive and professional response. Nice people will kindly attempt to explain to you about press freedom, and what is enshrined in SA’s constitution, and that "really, really, we’re sorry but advertising people have no control over what those journalists do".
(7)What you will get from me is the pleasure of never being interviewed by me again. I will not be blackmailed. I will not be bullied. And I most certainly will not interview you again, knowing that if you happen to take an ad for that feature you will assume I am running your quotes to keep you happy. Conversely, I will not do an interview knowing that if I do not run your quotes you will assume it is because you have not taken an ad.
(8)So the next time you have the urge to ask me if you can approve copy, or tell my sales team that you will not take an ad unless you are guaranteed editorial, remember the above and think about what you are actually doing. You are asking me to compromise my ethics, credibility, reputation, integrity and—ultimately— my career and I will not do that—for you or anyone.
The author writes most probably in order to chiefly satisfy ______.
选项
A、his desire
B、the editors
C、the media
D、his readers
答案
D
解析
第5段首句表明读者想看什么。作者就写什么,可见他的写作是为了迎合读者的需求,因此本题应选D。虽然第4段表明在故事里使用什么语句由作者自己决定,但这并不意味着他的写作是为了满足自己,可见A不正确:第5段第1句提到了magazine和website等与media有关的词,但句中的thus…表明这些并不是作者首要关心的东西,读者才是他最关心的,因此C不能选。B无原文依据。
