We are even farther removed from the unfocused newspaper reviews published in England between the turn of the 20th century and the eve of World War II, at a time when newsprint was dirt-cheap and stylish arts criticism was considered an ornament to the publications in which it appeared. In those far-off days, it was taken for granted that the critics of major papers would write in detail and at length about the events they covered. Theirs was a serious business, and even those reviewers who wore their learning lightly, like George Bernard Shaw and Ernest Newman, could be trusted to know what they were about. These men believed in journalism as a calling, and were proud to be published in the daily press. "So few authors have brains enough or literary gift enough to keep their own end up in journalism," Newman wrote, "that I am tempted to define ’journalism’ as ’a term of contempt’ applied by writers who are not read to writers who are."
选项
答案
20世纪初期和二战前夕期间在英国发表的东拉西扯的报纸评论已离我们远去,当时,新闻用纸非常便宜,而且时髦的文艺评论被看作一种对刊登这种内容的出版物的装饰。在那些遥远的年代,主流报纸的评论家们会把报道的事件充分详细地记录下来,这被视为理所当然。这些评论家们所从事的是严肃的事业。甚至是那些喜欢卖弄学问的评论家们(像萧伯纳和欧内斯特·纽曼)也知道自己在做什么,这一点足以让人信任。这些男人把新闻业看作一个职业,并且对于他们的文章能够在报纸上刊登出来感到很自豪。“拥有足够的思想或足够的文学天赋以使他们在新闻业中成就自己事业的作者少之又少”,纽曼写道,“我不禁想把‘新闻业’定义成没有学问的作家应用到有学问的作家身上的一个贬义词。”
