時間、速度、新聞、新聞價值、網際網路、實踐

許多人批評，網路使得新聞一味求快，傷害了新聞的價值。本
文以台灣新聞業為場域，從資深媒體人的實踐探究網路速度介入新聞工作的影響，包含時間秩序、對應策略、及其對於新聞價值的反思。本文主張，網路雖加快新聞生產節奏，但新聞的韻律仍難脫社會運作的大秩序；新聞人自信專業能力足以因應網路速度，但認為網路時代的新聞價值不再是快速蒐集資訊，而是回歸記者的自主實踐，反覆提問並促進社會對話。

Journalism seeks high-speed practices and is often described as an occupation that races against time. Communication technologies such as the Internet and smartphones have exacerbated this behavior, which affects news production. Numerous scholars have argued that the Internet
has made immediacy the prime goal of journalism, which has damaged its virtue. Whether the Internet has deteriorated the quality of journalism has yet to be determined. Few studies have investigated journalistic practices involving the Internet. Upon a review of the literature, this study discussed “a fetishism of the present” in journalism. Furthermore, through in-depth interviews and observations of experienced news and media workers, this study examined the changes in temporal orders in news production, as well as journalists’work strategies and reflexive thoughts regarding news values in the age of the Internet.
