摘要

尽管过去在加纳和其他地方对记者的袭击受到广泛谴责,但越来越多的证据表明,针对记者的暴行。当此类袭击的肇事者逍遥法外时,就会形成一种有罪不罚的文化。这篇文章揭示了针对记者的攻击事件,以及公众和/或国家机构对媒体自由的矛盾态度。审查了加纳对记者的攻击和恐吓事件,以重新引起对这一问题的讨论,并为媒体的安全和保护和一般发展措施提供信息。从理论上讲,这篇文章是沿着叙事概念的思路构建的,其中存在“对叙事的斗争”。国家工作人员、公民和媒体以相互竞争的方式表达对记者攻击的主要叙述。每一种叙述都有“相互竞争的真相”,可以说,这为每个实体带来了对记者安全的真实和合法立场的力量。这篇文章的结论是,加纳记者协会和媒体合作伙伴的持续倡导可以在影响对记者攻击采取积极措施方面发挥作用。

Vibrant and safe media landscape in Ghana: Reality or mirage?
Despite widespread condemnation of assaults on journalists in Ghana and elsewhere in the past, there is increasing evidence of brutality against journalists. When perpetrators of such assaults go unpunished, it fosters a culture of impunity. The article throws searchlight on incidences of assaults on journalists and the ambivalent attitude of the public and/or state agencies towards media freedom. Incidences of assaults and intimidations of journalists in Ghana were reviewed to ignite renewed discourse on the issue, and inform measures on the safety and protection and general development of media. Theoretically, the article is framed along lines of thoughts on concepts of narrative in which there is ‘struggle over narrative’. Major lines of narratives on assaults against journalists are expressed by state functionaries, citizens and the media in competing fashions. Each narrative has ‘competing truth’, which arguably carries for each entity a force of the true and rightful position on the safety of journalists. The article concludes that persistent advocacy by Ghana Journalists Association and media partners can make a difference in influencing positive steps on assaults on journalists.
