摘要

摘要本文以新闻思潮作为一个概念框架来理解新闻的权威性和认识论的变迁。我们认为，精神，即记者在文本中的战略性自我形象，是新闻表演潜力的重要组成部分，即使在超然的“客观”新闻中，记者似乎不在他们的文章中。从民族精神的角度分析新闻，阐明记者如何在确保其文本的表现的同时建立和重新工作认识论框架。利用叙事学理论，我们表明精神是模糊的，观众对记者可靠性的不同评价可能影响新闻报道发挥其表演潜力的可能性。Ethos为研究新闻文本与新闻生产、语境和受众之间的关系提供了一个综合框架，突出了可靠性、真实性或客观性等价值观如何在新闻领域和整个信息生态中被投射、传播和归因。

The journalist in the story. Conceptualizing ethos as integral framework to study news production, news texts and news audiences

Abstract This theoretical article presents ethos as a conceptual framework to understand journalism’s authority and shifting epistemologies. We argue that ethos, the strategic self-image of the journalist in the text, is an essential part of the performative potential of journalism, even in detached “objective” journalism where journalists are seemingly absent in their articles. Analyzing journalism from an ethos perspective, elucidates how journalists build on and rework epistemological frameworks while ensuring the performativity of their text. Drawing on narratological theory, we show that ethos is ambiguous and that the possible disparate evaluations of the journalist’s reliability by audiences impact the possibility of news stories to enact their performative potential. Ethos offers an integrated framework for studying relationships between news texts and news production, contexts and audiences, highlighting how values such as reliability, authenticity or objectivity are projected, circulated and attributed in the journalistic field and the information ecology at large.
