Now listen to the interview.

听力原文：INTERVIEWER: Newspapers seem sort of impersonal.., but radio and TV—there are personalities involved. Isn't there a lot more possibility that since there are personalities involved it will have a greater impact on people's reactions？

DANIEL: Well, I think you have to first start with the understanding that no person is unobjective. We're all striving to be objective, but we have our own prejudice. It's build in. And so, even the person who writes the story in the newspaper lets that bias come through in his pen. Of course, when we arc personally on camera, we're trying to stick pretty closely to a script. that we have already written.

INTERVIEWER: Uhm....

DANIEL: But sometimes, perhaps in an ad, although we try to avoid as much of that as possible—some of our prejudice or bias will show, even though we're striving not to let it show.

INTERVIEWER: Uh... but when people read a newspaper article, it's kind of cold.

DANIEL: Right, that's true.

INTERVIEWER: It could be... it could be a real exciting story, and all you can do is put exclamation marks. But when you see a person that...

DANIEL: I see what you're saying.

INTERVIEWER: I started to say that the particular biases of a person can come through more readily.

DANIEL: I think it's something you have to guard against. It would be wrong for that to happen. But, yes, I think what you're saying is true—that in trying to interpret the words that are on the script, I might.., in my voice or in my expression show some type of reaction to it. Uh... probably, would be more of a reaction than it would of an interpretation—although the voice implies an interpretation when you read any group of words.

INTERVIEWER: Right.

DANIEL: I guess the idea is to make that sentence not so bland, but so—leave out adjectives, leave out adverbs so that you deal just with nouns and verbs, and in that way, you keep it as straight as you possibly can.

INTERVIEWER: How do you see yourself, primarily—other than reporting the news？

Uh... are you an entertainer？

DANIEL: No. No, I don't think I'm an entertainer. I think, perhaps, the sports man might be an entertainer of sort—although he has a journalistic function too. I see myself as a public servant. Uh... the same as... a policeman or a mayor might be providing information to people that they need in their lives to... to live their life, to make decisions and so forth.

INTERVIEWER: But you are conscious, of course,... when you go before the cameras, that... that you're in a situation....

DANIEL: Right.

INTERVIEWER: ... uh... where there must be people that are viewing you as someone—

DANIEL: Because of your visibility, you become a somewhat of a celebrity in that sense, and I don't know—I try to play that down, so that doesn't become a thing with me.

INTERVIEWER: Uh-uhm...

DANIEL: Because I think that's probably the biggest problem in our profession—the biggest temptation is to get a big head. And while you need confidence in order to do your job— it's a... it's a high-pressure job, so you need confidence—you get too much of that confidence, and that begins to come across the tube.

INTERVIEWER: Right....

DANIEL: ... as you're kind of a know-it-all, or you think yourself more important than you really should be. And I think that would be dealt with by the viewer. After a while, they'll just turn you off. They'll say, "I don't want to watch that cocky so-and-so any more!"

INTERVIEWER: Some newspapers, I suppose, some TV stations, have had the reputation for reporting, for sensationalizing.

DANIEL: That's true. There are several markets in the count

A．All media people try to be objective.

B．All people have some prejudice.

C．Unlike radio and TV, newspapers are impersonal.

D．People cannot avoid showing their bias.
