18、活的報(bào)道，就很難說了。記者按事實(shí)至上的論點(diǎn)行事，發(fā)表有關(guān)別人私生活的細(xì)節(jié)，有時(shí)會(huì)給當(dāng)事人造成極大的痛苦。新聞具有巨大的威力.它們不僅可以給尋常人家的生活帶來重大的變化,甚至還能推翻一個(gè)政府。下面這戶窮人一夜之間出名發(fā)財(cái)?shù)墓适聭騽⌒缘卣f明了新聞報(bào)道的威力。這戶人家住在南達(dá)科他州一個(gè)人口為23，000的小鎮(zhèn)上，鎮(zhèn)名為阿拜丁。家里已有5個(gè)孩子，全家人常年在貧困中掙扎。第6個(gè)孩子即將問世,他們面臨著更為嚴(yán)峻的經(jīng)濟(jì)問題.如果他們只是添了1個(gè)孩子，這件事本來就不會(huì)引起任何人的注意。這家人會(huì)繼續(xù)為克服經(jīng)濟(jì)上的拮據(jù)而奮斗，并默默無聞地活下去。但是他們出人意料地生了個(gè)五胞胎，4女1男。這事使他們的生活發(fā)生了根本

19、的變化。五胞胎降生第二天,一架飛機(jī)飛抵阿拜丁，隨機(jī)帶來60名記者與攝影師。這一家迅速出了名.電視攝像機(jī)和報(bào)紙把消息傳送到全國。報(bào)紙、雜志出高價(jià)向他們購買文字、圖片的獨(dú)家報(bào)道權(quán)。不但素昧平生的人寄來了大量的禮物,而且嬰兒食品、嬰兒肥皂制造廠商為了替自己產(chǎn)品做廣告也寄來了大量的禮物。這家人住的舊農(nóng)舍將由一座價(jià)值50萬美元的新住宅所取代.由于記者紛紛要求會(huì)見，他們不得不請了律師充當(dāng)他們家的發(fā)言人舉行記者招待會(huì)。眼下,五胞胎還靜靜地躺在醫(yī)院嬰兒室的氧氣帳里，他們的父母卻為這名聲付出了代價(jià)，他們再也無法過正常的生活。他們成了商業(yè)化的受害者，因?yàn)樗麄兊拿志哂辛耸袌鰞r(jià)值。這些孩子立即成了商品，而不是5個(gè)新
