摘要

这项研究考察了卢旺达、乌干达和肯尼亚的记者如何根据各国不同的政治制度来看待他们的新闻角色取向，卢旺达代表着政治制度最严格的国家，乌干达位于中间，肯尼亚代表着政治体制最不严格的国家。数据来自三个东非国家的424名记者完成的一项比较定量在线调查。总的来说，每个国家出现的新闻角色取向都与每个国家政治制度所提供的自由相一致，这揭示了一种趋势，即非西方国家的记者倾向于扮演更具干预性的角色（有时甚至到了积极支持政府的地步），政治制度限制较少的国家的记者倾向于扮演更具对抗性的角色（控制政府）。

Journalistic role orientations in Rwanda, Uganda and Kenya

This study examines how journalists in Rwanda, Uganda and Kenya perceive their journalistic role orientations in light of the countries’ differing political systems, Rwanda representing the nation with the most restrictive political system, Uganda sitting in the middle and Kenya illustrating the nation that is home to the least restrictive political system. Data were analyzed from a comparative, quantitative online survey completed by 424 journalists from the three East African nations. Overall, the journalistic role orientations that emerged in each country align with the freedoms afforded by the political system in each country, revealing a trend that journalists in non-Western countries lean toward more interventionist roles (at times to the point of actively supporting their government), and journalists in countries with less restrictive political systems lean toward more adversarial roles (keeping their government in check).
