On the Subjectivity of News Authenticity

Traditional journalism is wedded to the idea of the consistency, compliance and identity between"news truth" and "objective reality", thus forming the myth of a utopia of news. This is a kind of academic confusing of"epistemology truth" and "ontology truth" in the field of philosophy. News truth is a kind of narrative truth that is contaminated by subjectivity. The true subjectivity of news is the result of subsistent transcendental subjectivity acting on disseminator, audient and language. Confronting certainties of the true subjectivity of news cannot negate objective values of news. On the contrary, it can enrich and expand the academic connotations of news truth as well as find theories for news praxis.
