第二篇：BBC的歷史

BBC的歷史

英國廣播公司（British Broadcast Company），簡稱BBC，成立于1922年，是英國最大的新聞廣播機構，也是世界最大的新聞廣播機構之一。BBC雖然是接受英國政府財政資助的公營媒體，但其管理卻是由一個獨立于政府以外的12人監管委員會負責，并且通過皇家憲章保障其獨立性。監管委員以公眾利益的信托人的身份管理BBC，他們都是社會上有名望的人士，包括蘇格蘭、威爾斯、北愛爾蘭和英格蘭的首長，由英國首相提名，英女皇委任。

監管委員會下轄執行委員會，由16個不同部門主管組成，負責BBC日常營運工作，委員會主席為行政總裁，并兼任總編輯。

BBC目前經營10個電視頻道和11個電臺調頻，及直接由英國政府出資經營以43種語言作全球廣播。BBC在新聞界最為人樂道的是其嚴格的要求，所有制作人都要恪守BBC的工作規章：節目制作人準則，該準則對編輯和采訪業務的各方面提出了具體詳細的要求。

在BBC建立之前，已經有很多私人公司嘗試在英國做電臺廣播。根據1904年的無線電法案，英國郵政局負責頒發電臺廣播牌照。1919年，由于收到很多軍隊對過多廣播而干擾軍事通訊的投訴，郵政局停止發出牌照。于是，1920年代初期，廣播電臺數量驟減，越來越多人要求成立一個國家廣播電臺。一個由無線電收音機制造商組成的委員會經過幾個月的討論，最終提出一個方案，BBC由此誕生。

英國廣播公司成立于1922年，由幾個大財團共同出資，包括馬可尼（Marconi）、英國通用電氣公司（GEC）、British Thomson Houston等。公司草創時最初的目的是建立一個覆蓋全國的廣播傳輸網絡，以為今后的全國廣播提供便利。1922年11月14日，BBC的第一個電臺，2LO以中波從倫敦牛津街的塞爾福里奇百貨公司（Selfridges Department Store）的屋頂開始廣播。次日5IT從伯明翰，2ZY從曼徹斯特也開始了廣播。

1927年BBC獲得皇家特許狀（Royal Charter of Incorporation），由理事會負責公司的運作，理事會成員由政府任命，每人任期4年，公司日常工作則由理事會任命的總裁負責。

1932年BBC帝國電臺（BBC Empire Service）開播，這是BBC第一個向英國本土以外地區廣播的電臺頻道。1938年，BBC阿拉伯語電臺開播，這是BBC的第一個外語頻道。到二戰結束時，BBC已經以英語、阿拉伯語、法語、德語、意大利語、葡萄牙語和西班牙語7種語言向全世界廣播。這是BBC國際電臺（BBC World Service）的前身。

蘇格蘭工程師約翰·羅吉·貝爾德從1932年開始和BBC合作，嘗試進行電視播送。1936年11月2日，BBC開始成立了全球第一個電視臺。電視廣播在二戰中曾經中斷，但是在1946年重新開播。1953年6月2日，BBC現場直播伊麗莎白二世在西敏寺的登基大典，估計全英國約有2,000萬人直接目睹了女王登基的現場實況。

由于受到地下電臺的挑戰，1967年9月30日BBC開始了BBC Radio 1電臺調頻，以播送流行音樂為主。1983年，BBC又第一個開播了早晨電視節目，叫做《英倫早晨(BBC Breakfast Time)》（現在不叫Breakfast Time而叫Breakfast），搶在了競爭對手的前頭。

1991年BBC正式播出BBC國際新聞頻道，后在1995年1月更名為BBC World。與BBC電臺不同的是，BBC國際新聞頻道是商業電視臺，通過廣告營利，這也意味著該頻道不能在英國本土播出。2008年4月21日改為BBC World News。

1998年8月，BBC的國內頻道也開始采用衛星播送，這么做的一個意想不到的結果是，只要歐洲觀眾使用英國制造的衛星解碼器，他們也可以收看BBC One（象央視一套）和BBC TWO（象央視二套）。2003年7月，BBC4號調頻（BBC Radio 4）的一個新聞節目引述了一名政府官員的話稱貝理雅政府在薩達姆擁有大規模殺傷性武器問題上“加油添醋”，而沒有按照情報機構所提供的情報準確向公眾報告，以獲得公眾對參與美伊戰爭的支持。報導這一新聞的BBC著名記者安德魯·吉利根（Andrew Gilligan）后來在一篇文章中稱，貝理雅政府的新聞官阿斯戴爾·坎貝爾（Alistair Campbell）是夸大情報的幕后黑手。英國政府完全否認該項指控，英國議會決定任命獨立檢察官對事件進行調查。事件導致BBC與英國政府的關系惡化。在原先懷疑是BBC情報來源的英國國防部專家大衛·凱利博士自殺后，事件繼續惡化，BBC和英國政府都被指責應對凱利之死負責。在獨立檢察官最后發表的《赫頓報告》中，吉利根和BBC高層都被指責對新聞處理不當。事件導致吉利根本人、BBC總裁和BBC理事會主席的辭職。

第四篇：BBC演講精華整理

BBC雙語新聞講解附字幕:醫生稱舒馬赫仍未脫離危險 BBC News with Nick Kelly Both sides in the conflict in South Sudan have agreed to meet for peace talks in Ethiopia to try to halt the violence that's killed at least 1,000 people in the past two weeks.But fighting has continued and Bor forces loyal to the rebel leader Riek Machar are reported to be backing control of the strategic town of Bor.James Copnall is in the capital Juba.The talks are due to take place in the Ethiopian capital Addis Ababa once both delegations arrive.The first priority should be agreeing on the terms of a cessation of hostilities.Next would come the potentially more challenging issue of resolving the political fractures that created this crisis.President Salva Kiir has already told the BBC that he will not contemplate sharing power with his rival Riek Machar.Meanwhile the fighting continues.Earlier today, Mr.Machar said his forces had taken the town of Bor.Aid workers in Syria say hospitals in the country's biggest city Aleppo have been overwhelmed by civilian casualties following intense bombardment by government forces, They say barrel bombs improvised explosives have been dropped on densely populated areas including schools and markets.Aitor Zabalgogeazkoa of the charity Medecins Sans Frontieres has just returned from Aleppo, he said about 4 or 5 barrel bombs a day are been dropped and their impact has been devastating.“Really, it's probably the most difficult time for the people for the civilians in Aleppo.Everybody is terrified, and you know, paradoxically everybody terrified thinking that good weather would come back tomorrow and everybody are afraid of expecting there more extra to gain.”

Three journalists working for the Al-Jazeera television network have been remanded in custody for 15 days by the Egyptian authorities.The men were arrested on Sunday at a hotel in Cairo.They include the former BBC correspondent Peter Greste who's Australian.Bethany Bell reports from Cairo.A statement from the Egyptian public prosecutor's office said the journalists were accused of joining an illegal terrorist group.It said they broadcast false news which undermined the Egypt's reputation.Al-Jazeera has condemned the arrests and called for the immediate and unconditional release of its team.The Egyptian authorities have accused Al-Jazeera of bias in favor of the Muslim Brotherhood since the army overthrew president Mohammed Morsi in July.Last week, the Muslim Brotherhood was declared a terrorist organization.The United States says it has released the last three Chinese Muslim Uighur prisoners from a detention center at Guantanamo Bay.They have arrived in Slovakia which has agreed to take them in.The three men were held at the US prison for more than a decade after being captured in Afghanistan.The Pentagon said their transfer to Slovakia was a milestone in its efforts to close Guantanamo.World News from the BBC Doctors treating the German motor racing star Michael Schumacher say there has been a slight improvement in his condition.The seven times Formula 1 champion suffered serious head injuries in a skiing accident in the French Alps on Sunday.Neurosurgeons at the university hospital in Grenoble carried out a second operation overnight relieve pressure on his brain.They say Schumacher, who's been kept in a medically induced coma is not out of danger yet.France has given details of sharp cut in the number of troops in Mali.The French Defense Minister Jean-Yves Le Drian who's visiting Mali said there has been a 60% reduction over the next three months leaving 1,000 in place.In January this year, French soldiers defeated Islamist rebels who've taken over northern Mali but the insurgent attacks have continued.The Russian President Vladimir Putin has said Russia will continue to fight terrorists until their complete annihilation.The comments in a New Year's Eve speech were his first public remarks after two deadly suicide bombings on consecutive days in the city of Volgograd which killed 34 people.Islamist militants from Russia's Caucasus region have been widely blamed for attacks which have raised security concerns ahead February's Winter Olympics.And millions of people around the world are celebrating the new year.In Dubai fireworks exploded from the Burj Khalifa, the world's tallest building while revelers in central Moscow watched the spectacular display over the Kremlin.China counted down to midnight with light shows at the Great Wall near Beijing and in Shanghai.Also fireworks displaced in Auckland in New Zealand and Sydney in Australia.And in Hong Kong, fireworks exploded over Victoria Harbour.BBC News

南蘇丹沖突雙方同意在埃塞俄比亞會談以試圖終止這場過去兩周導致至少1000人喪生的暴力，但戰斗仍在繼續，據悉效忠于怕軍領袖Riek Machar的博爾軍隊再次控制戰略重鎮博爾。James Copnall在首都朱巴報道。

一旦兩方代表達到，會談將在埃塞俄比亞首都亞的斯亞貝巴舉行。第一個重要問題將是就停止敵對狀態達成協議，下一個提議可能更具挑戰，那就是解決制造這場危機的政治分裂問題。總統薩爾瓦·基爾告訴BBC，他不會考慮與對手Riek Machar共享權力。同時戰斗仍在繼續。今天早些時候，Machar說他的部隊已奪取博爾鎮。

敘利亞援助人員稱，在政府軍進行激烈轟炸后，該國最大城市阿勒頗的醫院滿是傷亡者，他們稱學校和市場等人口稠密區都被投擲了炸彈。醫療無國界慈善組織的薩瓦爾戈賈科亞剛從阿勒頗回來，他說政府軍每天都要投擲四五桶炸藥，其破壞力非常大。

“這對阿勒頗平民來說可能是最艱難的時候了，每個人都很害怕，每個恐懼的人都認為明天情況會好起來，但每個人都害怕會更糟糕。”

半島電視臺三名記者被埃及當局在押候審15天，他們是周日在開羅一家酒店被捕的，其中包括BBC前記者澳大利亞人彼得·奎斯特。Bethany Bell在開羅報道。

埃及檢察官辦公室稱這些記者的罪名是加入恐怖組織，稱他們播報有損埃及聲譽的虛假新聞。半島電視臺譴責逮捕事件，呼吁立即無條件釋放這些人。埃及當局指責半島電視臺自7月份軍隊推翻總統穆罕默德·穆爾西后就偏袒穆斯林兄弟會。上周，當局宣布穆斯林兄弟會為恐怖組織。

美國稱已釋放在關塔那摩灣的三名中國維族穆斯林囚犯，這些人前往斯洛伐克，該國已同意接受他們。這三人在阿富汗被捕后在美國監獄被關押了10多年，五角大樓稱將他們轉交給斯洛伐克是關閉關塔那摩的里程碑的一步。

為德國摩托車手邁克爾·舒馬赫治療的醫生稱他的狀況只有一點好轉，這位七度獲得冠軍的F1車手周日在法國阿爾卑斯山滑雪時頭部嚴重受傷。格勒諾布爾大學醫院的神經外科醫生夜間為他做了第二次手術來釋放大腦的壓力，他們稱目前因藥物處于昏迷狀態的舒馬赫仍然沒有脫險。

法國就大幅度削減駐馬里軍隊做出詳細解釋，目前正在訪問馬里的國防部長稱未來三個月將削減60%的軍隊，只留下1000人。1月份，法國士兵擊敗奪取馬里北部的伊斯蘭叛軍，但叛軍的襲擊活動仍在繼續。

俄羅斯總統弗拉基米爾·普京稱俄羅斯將繼續打擊恐怖分子，直至將之完全消滅。此前伏爾加格勒市連續發生兩起自殺式爆炸案，導致34人喪生，普京的新年致辭是自此以來的首次公開言論。人們指責俄羅斯高加索地區的伊斯蘭武裝分子實施了襲擊，襲擊案使得人們開始擔心2月份冬奧會的安全。

全世界無數人都在慶祝新年，迪拜全世界最高建筑哈利法塔燃放了爆竹，在莫斯科中部，狂歡者們在克里姆林宮觀看精彩的表演。中國在午夜等待倒計時，北京長城附近和上海都推出燈光秀。新西蘭奧克蘭和澳大利亞悉尼也有爆竹燃放，香港維多利亞港上空也燃放了爆竹。BBC新聞。
