castigate 在 Daphne Iking Facebook 的精選貼文
Please read. I agree with Jahabar completely in this!
Did The Star screw up with its Saturday front page? And is the outrage and official response enough, too little or too much? And is The Star doing enough, too little or too much by suspending two senior editors?
Let's get to the facts first. The Star lead story on Saturday was headlined Malaysian Terrorist Leader and below that with a thin divider was a photograph of a terawih prayer session that marks the Ramadan fasting month.
Two other newspapers, namely New Straits Times and Utusan Malaysia had similar layouts of similar themes on that day.
Remember, this is Saturday. Nothing happens, no reaction to the front pages of the three newspapers (let's leave their ownership or bias out of this, ok!)
Sunday, some people make noise about Saturday edition of The Star. In a nutshell, it would appear that combination of headline and picture would make Muslims appear to be terrorists.
Let's forget what happened in Mindanao, Jakarta and Bangkok or Manchester and other parts of the world. We live in our own microcosm and the rest of the world doesn't matter. No, really! 1MDB investigations around the world don't matter, do they?
The drama happens, politicians make noise, police reports are made, The Star is hauled up. Four editors turn up to see the Home Ministry people on Monday, and The Star then says 2 seniors will be suspended.
This is really no different from 2011 when The Star fouled up over a Ramadan supplement and added a pork dish to it. Insensitive? Clueless more like it.
Clueless is the word really, for those who don't know how to read newspapers anymore. There is a page, it has a headline, probably has a photograph too, and some advertisements.
No different from a digital page. The only difference is that it can be unrelated. And speaking of advertisement, some went further to castigate The Star for having a massage advertisement below the terawih picture.
So, did The Star screw up with the layout? I don't think so. This is pretty much its standard layout and it did clearly say FULL STORY IN PAGE 3.
Did it refer to the photograph in that article? NO!
Did the photograph refer to the article above it? NO!
Was it clear that the headline and article had nothing to do with the photograph on the front page? YES if you read newspapers regularly and don't think Muslims are generally terrorists. NO if you don't read newspapers and rely on a snapshot. And feel people think Muslims are generally terrorists.
See, it really is a matter of perception, and perhaps sensitivity. In this case, I think it is manufactured outrage. To emphasise, buttress the point on who is in charge of this country.
You don't think so? The NST and Utusan didn't get the same treatment as The Star.
And I don't think any of them should get that treatment. It is a matter of news sense, layout and picture of the day. The only failure to me is The Star did not choose a great picture.
Now the second and third questions. Did the authorities and The Star do the correct thing, under-react or over-react?
I'd say over-react. Why go hammer and tongs at the newspaper which apparently isn't being read by as many as before except by way of snapshots now?
If anything, put some sense into the editors about photograph selection. And maybe layout. Do we need to mention sedition?
What will happen, and perhaps that's the intention, is editors will now just do the bare minimum rather than push the envelope in Malaysian journalism. We will be left with propaganda (What am I saying? We are left with propaganda in print media.)
You know what I mean though.
We live at a time when the media is called an enemy in the US, or fake news. We live at a time when everyone can publish their own version of news in social media and blogs and it gets carried and believed.
We live at a time when journalists who go the extra mile get done in for going beyond ever-shrinking parameters set by those with vested interests and agenda.
The best journalists I know are jobless or have given up, and the few good ones try to do better in this business. Some keep quiet because they have jobs to keep, mouths to feed. Some dare and die for it.
I don't believe The Star senior editors deserve suspension. The Star screwed up on that. But I think I know why they did it. They want to avoid a suspension and keep jobs in an already difficult market.
If they get punished with a suspension, they will suffer what The Edge suffered two years ago. I know what that is like. The portal I worked at, The Malaysian Insider, suffered a block and was shut down within weeks of that block.
Malaysian journalists straddle a fine line of scooping, informing and being told to behave by all and sundry. Everyone just wants their version of news in their comfortable silos.
They don't want the truth, the facts, the reality. And when there is an opportunity to put down the media, they will do it. Not just the government, it's the rest of us.
It could be politics, it could be our own bias, it could be that we think print media is just a waste of time.
But you know, when you just see lifestyle news and anything that makes you spend money for no other reason than greed, you're basically picking up advertisements rather than news.
Journalism isn's the fourth estate any more here in Malaysia. It is the plaything of the rich and powerful; and the target of the sensitive and the outraged.
What The Star is going through this week is just another depth plumbed in Malaysia. How low can we go? Perhaps beyond bottom.

castigate 在 [字彙] castigate - 精華區GRE - 批踢踢實業坊 的美食出口停車場
謝謝很多板友的鼓勵
V沒考好是蠻令人...失落的
我是希望大家以後都可以不要有這種失落感
目前在家休息中,整理一堆GRE用過的資料,與重灌桌機
閒閒之際,為了回饋GRE板與板友
在我有空閒的時候,就來講解一下單字吧
今天要講的是 castigate v.嚴厲懲治、譴責
這個字是由拉丁文的castus,其義為"純pure"而來
嚴厲懲治跟純有什麼關係呢?
我的解讀是to castigate is for being pure.
也就說為了純化所以嚴厲懲治、譴責
你在紅寶會遇到由拉丁文的castus衍生而來的字,只有以下幾個:
chaste adj.貞節的 [virtuous, pure from unlawful sexual intercourse]
[from L. castus "pure"]
chast-ity n.貞節
chasten v. 改正壞習慣 (通過懲罰和磨練 )
[to inflict suffering upon for purposes of moral improvement.]
[from obsolete chaste (v.)]
________________
首先你看到chaste adj.adj.貞節的
為什麼這個字跟拉丁文的castus會扯得到邊呢
因為ch 與 c 很多地方都是可以互通的唷
比如說
chart 跟 card 是同來源的
cavalier n.騎士 跟 chivalrous adj.騎士精神的
這樣子,chast 與 castus是不是就像多了呢
-ity 是名詞尾
-en 是動詞尾
___________________
chastise v.嚴厲懲罰(痛打等) [to discipline, esp. by corporal punishment.]
v.嚴厲批評 [to criticize severely; rebuke.]
這個只是由chast + ise 而已
________________________
castigate v.嚴厲懲治
v.強烈譴責=punish=rebuke
[form L. castigare; castus "pure" + agere "to do]
其中chasten、chastise、castigate 可以視為相同的意思
________________
很好你已經背了castigate了
請留意下面這個單字,在初期我有時候會搞混呢
castigate v.嚴厲懲治、譴責
instigate v.煽動、挑動 [to cause by incitement; foment]
這裡的拆字是 [in + stig (刺) + ate -->刺激別人]
___________________
再來看一下綜合的整理,你在紅寶所會遇到跟指責有關的字
指責系列
小
admonish v.警告
caveat v.警告
chide v.To scold mildly so as to correct or improve
中
condemn
reproach
blame
reprove
大
berate
castigate
censure
lambaste
rebuke v. censure severely or angrily
reprimand
upbraid
scold v.[To reprimand or criticize harshly and usually angrily. ]
vituperate v謾罵. [to use or address with harsh or abusive language]
-----
歡迎板友在推文中,提出想知道要怎麼背的單字
我會選幾位板友的想知道的單字來講解(如果是紅寶的我知道的比較多一點)
現在是還有空閒
以後就不知道了
要把握機會問唷
謝謝你們
希望你們都能考好阿!!!!
