要坚持正确的舆论导向,完成党对新闻工作提出的“以正确的舆论引导人”的任务,就必须加强新闻队伍的自身建设,提高新闻工作者的思想政治素质和业务素质。江泽民总书记在视察《人民日报》时,对新闻工作者提出了要打好五个根底的具体要求。打好五个根底,是新闻工作者提高素质的重要基础,也是服务社会、服务人民的必备条件。 To uphold the correct direction of public opinion and complete the task of “guiding people by correct public opinion” put forward by the party in press work, we must step up the self-construction of news teams and raise the ideological, political and professional quality of journalists. When inspected the “People’s Daily”, General Secretary Jiang Zemin put forward to journalists the specific requirements for laying down the basis for the five issues. To lay a good foundation for the five needs is an important foundation for journalists to improve their quality and is also a prerequisite for serving the community and serving the people.
