Via 東南西北
話說星島日報報導,上月本港的反世貿示威中,警方指有人用螺絲射警察,星島更用上「警員痛入心」來形容中招警察,可惜我沒看過原文,只在東南西北處看scan 圖,文中登了兩幅相,caption 是「反世貿示威者曾以殺傷力極大的彈叉發射螺絲母攻擊警員」,但沒有說明相片出處,還好東南西北認出相片是出自委內瑞拉暴動,這樣的報導手法,是誤導,譞人以為上月反世貿示威中,有個這樣的人。
還是引用東南西北的話作總結:
Do you share my outrage at media manipulation!? It is alright to use that photograph, but there has to be an explanation about where and when it was actually taken. It is illustrative only, but it is being presented as Hong Kong fact.
Mainstream media and the Hong Kong Journalists Association like to harp on InMediaHK and its civilian journalists for the lack of professional and ethical codes of conduct. If this is the type of professional and ethical conduct that they practice, then the world is better off without them.
