newspaper 的词源
newspaper(n.)
“一份包含情报或近期事件报道的文稿,以短而定期的间隔发布”,这个概念最早出现在1660年代,最初被称为newes paper,尽管这种形式的出版物实际上更早就存在了(参见gazette)。这个词由news(新闻)和paper(纸张)组合而成。
[T]he newspaper that drops on your doorstep is a partial, hasty, incomplete, inevitably somewhat flawed and inaccurate rendering of some of the things we have heard about in the past twenty-four hours — distorted, despite our best efforts to eliminate gross bias, by the very process of compression that makes it possible for you to lift it from the doorstep and read it in about an hour. If we labeled the product accurately, then we could immediately add: But it's the best we could do under the circumstances, and we will be back tomorrow with a corrected and updated version. [David Broder, Pulitzer Prize acceptance speech, 1973]
“每天早上送到你家门口的报纸,其实只是我们在过去二十四小时内听到的一些事情的片面、匆忙、不完整的记录。尽管我们努力消除明显的偏见,但由于信息压缩的过程,它仍然会扭曲,尽管你可以在一个小时内从门口拿起并阅读。如果我们准确地标注这个产品,那么我们可以立即补充说:但这是我们在这种情况下能做到的最好版本,我们明天会带来一个更正和更新的版本。”——戴维·布罗德,《普利策奖》接受演讲,1973年
