一位新闻函授学员打电话问我:“学报道是先读作品呢,还是先学理论呢?”我以为,这位学员的问题有必要作为一个问题研究。因为它不仅是初学报道者可能遇到的问题,而且也是我们这些已经搞了多年新闻的人,也要解决好的问题。这里说的所谓读作品,专指读新闻作品,如阅读发表在报刊上 A news correspondence student called me and asked me, “Did learning reporting first work, or did it first?” I thought it was necessary to study the student’s question as a question. Because it is not only a problem for beginner reporters, but also a problem solved by those of us who have been in the news for many years. The so-called reading works here, specifically refers to read news works, such as reading published in the press
