The reason why Taiwan's TV news has been criticized is because the news is regarded as commodities. Therefore, the TV companies take the audiences as either customers or consumers by measuring with ratings and ignore their social responsibility of supervision function purposes. TV news should offer diverse information for more marginal utility but unfortunately the news has been commercialized now. In fact, TV stations try to get cost down and ask reporters for doing the same thing to provide news duplicated partly from newspapers, magazines or network outlets. Gradually the news environment overlaps with redundant information and results in negative external effects causing a lot of controversy. In this preliminary observation research of newspapers from 2nd October to 18th November in 2014, Taiwan's six cable TV stations broadcast the news at noon, in which were found plagiarism from the newspapers. The proportion of news content from the study showed TVBS 36.22%, SETN 24.39%, FTV 38.41%, CTiTV 44.73%, ETTV 26.95%, ERA26.32%. Copied the news from newspapers has become an important operating model of information source for TV stations. To appraise and make news became working schemata. The TV stations depreciate the news values as commodities and take the so called media social function as an excuse to deprive the audiences of their right to know and violate the traditional news ethics. By doing so, it will be a "media failure". |
