This study surveyed 348 local TV journalists to learn whether—given the demands of the contemporary, conglomerated television news industry—they still adhere to traditional journalistic principles. The findings suggest that, by and large, reporters believe they make a determined effort to uphold good journalism practices despite management pressures to produce increasingly higher volumes of news content more quickly and with fewer resources. Findings suggest further scholarly attention to two journalism principles in particular may be needed: the principle of verifying facts before publication as it pertains to social media adoption in newsrooms and, secondly, changes in newsroom organization related to the principle of watchdog journalism.

传统的新闻原则在今天的地方电视新闻编辑室中仍然存在吗？

本研究调查了 348 名当地电视记者，以了解他们是否仍然坚持传统的新闻原则——鉴于当代综合电视新闻行业的需求。调查结果表明，总的来说，记者们相信，尽管管理层面临着以更少的资源更快地制作越来越多的新闻内容的压力，他们仍坚定地努力维护良好的新闻实践。研究结果表明，学术界可能尤其需要进一步关注两项新闻原则：在出版前核实事实的原则，因为它与新闻编辑室采用社交媒体有关；其次，与监督新闻原则相关的新闻编辑室组织的变化。
