处变不惊: CBC对渥太华枪击案的现场报道获赞扬

加拿大广播公司法语电视台的著名记者雷平江(Jean-François Lépine)不久前在一次访谈节目中说,加拿大英语媒体深受美国媒体影响。他当驻外记者时一度同时为加拿大广播公司英语电视台(CBC)工作。常有节目 制作人纠正他:“你得这么说,因为美国人是这么说的。”

不过,本星期CBC对渥太华枪击案的现场报道却赢得了美国同行的赞扬。资深制作人詹姆斯. 韦斯特在《Mother Jones》上发表了一篇短文:“渥太华枪击案的加拿大报道让美国有线电视新闻汗颜”。他认为,加拿大广播公司星期三的现场报道可以被当作突发事件报道的 范例。


韦斯特尤其赞赏的是“处变不惊”的主持人彼得.曼斯布里奇(Peter Mansbridge)。他说,对突发事件的现场报道,不论是CBC还是美国电视台,都免不了粗略的叙述,互相矛盾的说法,不靠谱的目击者,以及现场的混 乱造成的扑朔迷离。但是曼斯布里奇和他的团队没有被这种混乱裹挟。他们的描述简洁而基于事实,把事件的迅速变化呈现在加拿大和全世界的观众面前。


韦斯特在文中引用了一段曼斯布里奇在星期三上午11点10分左右的现场解说。他认为,这段解说代表了CBC的专业水平,完全可以给新闻系的学生作教 材。当时枪手的身份、动机甚至人数都不清楚,议会内外乱成一团,已获证实的信息极少。在这种情况下,曼斯布里奇的解说审慎而忠于事实,斟酌字句却并不拖 拉。他在信息不足的情况下”同声传译“现场正在发生的事,其难能可贵之处是没有利用他以往的经验来推断或填补信息中的空缺部分,而是利用它来为团队中记者 的报道提供必要的补充和支持。


韦斯特说,新闻报道,尤其是现场报道,出错是难免的。但是在星期三CBC六个多小时的报道中,他没有一次听到不知所云的臆测,而这在美国最近的突发事件报道中是很常见的。


韦斯特最后引用了几条和他持同样看法的推特。一位名叫迈克.维凯特的加拿大听众说:“你说的对。CBC和曼斯布里奇对今天的可怕事件的报道镇静、仔细而且准确。” 一位名叫阿拉什.马达尼的美国编辑也认为CBC的报道值得美国同行学习。


现已退休的CBC驻外记者布莱恩.斯图沃特在一次接受《多伦多星报》采访时也说,曼斯布里奇在重大事件和危机时刻 — 大选之夜,独立公投,伊拉克战争爆发,”9.11“恐怖袭击 — 的现场掌控能力是英语媒体的主持人中首屈一指的。将来他退休时,CBC恐怕不容易找到在这方面能够替代他的人。

从机场临时工到CBC名嘴


1968年,刚刚高中毕业的曼斯布里奇在曼尼托巴省北部小城丘吉尔市的机场当行李搬运工(一说为售票柜台职员)。有一天登机口人手不够,他被临时派 去顶班。命运的安排使CBC广播电台的一位地方主管恰好那一天在丘吉尔机场下飞机。当曼斯布里奇广播航班起飞时间、催促乘客登机时,那把后来加拿大人非常 熟悉的男中音吸引了他的注意。这位主管循声找到曼斯布里奇,表示愿意雇用他主持一个深夜音乐节目。那是他在CBC的起步。


1988年,美国CBS电视台高薪聘请曼斯布里奇主持一个早间节目。当时他是加拿大广播公司晚间新闻节目”The National“的替补主持。为了留住他,正牌主持诺顿.纳什自愿退居二线。曼斯布里奇多年后在接受《多伦多星报》采访时说:“你不会对这份工作说不。 这是加拿大电视新闻界最好的工作。” 他留下了,主持这个节目至今。


加拿大和美国的著名记者和主持人的职业生涯可以很长。白发和皱纹并不妨碍他们成为节目收视率的保证。CTV的劳埃德.罗伯逊三年前从晚间新闻主持人的岗位上退休时已经77岁。85岁的美国著名主持人芭芭拉.沃尔特斯直到今年五月才退休。几个月前为减少年轻记者流失而“自我裁员”的CBC记者麦金泰尔也过了70岁。今年66岁的曼斯布里奇刚刚和CBC重新签约。但是他曾公开表示,他不想干到年龄以“7”打头的时候,也并不认为自己不可替代。


《多伦多星报》记者维奈.默农听人讲过这样一件事:有一次曼斯布里奇去华盛顿采访美国总统奥巴马。采访结束后,奥巴马匆匆离开,走向在白宫外等候的直升机,但不一会儿又带着一个机组工作人员回来了。那人是个加拿大人。他就是想告诉曼斯布里奇,自己的母亲是他的粉丝。


讲这个故事的人是想说明曼斯布里奇的名气有多大,但是他自己并不这么看。他对默农解释说,他刚开始做主持人的时候,有时会被自称粉丝的年轻人拦住要照片。随着时间过去,他们开始为自己的母亲要照片。现在他们就快要说”我奶奶是你的粉丝“了。


对曼斯布里奇来说,这就意味着已经到了该为自己的主持人生涯设倒计时的时候了。

Peter Mansbridge, OC (born July 6, 1948), is an English-Canadian broadcaster and news anchor. He is chief correspondent for CBC News and anchor of The National, CBC Television's flagship nightly newscast. Mansbridge has received many awards and accolades for his journalistic work including an honorary doctorate from Mount Allison University where he is serving as chancellor until December 2017.[2]

Early life
Mansbridge was born on July 6, 1948 in London, England.[3] He and his siblings Paul and Wendy were children of Stanley Harry Mansbridge, D.F.C.[4] (1918-2005), an RAF Wing Commander,[4] civil servant (in Britain, Malaya, Alberta and Canada) and Brena Louise Mansbridge (d. 2008). His father received a D.F.C. for his service as a navigator aboard an Avro Lancaster bomber during World War II.[4] After moving to Ottawa, Ontario, Canada, Peter attended Glebe Collegiate Institute, but dropped out before graduating. He served in the Royal Canadian Navy in 1966 and 1967 and completed high school at Trinity College School in Port Hope, Ontario.

Newscasting career
After graduating from Trinity College School, Mansbridge worked as a ticket agent for Transair at Churchill Airport in Churchill, Manitoba. In 1968, Mansbridge was discovered by Gaston Charpentier, a station manager for the local Canadian Broadcasting Corporation (CBC) radio station CHFC, when he heard Mansbridge making a flight announcement. Charpentier hired the 19-year-old Mansbridge as the host of CHFC's late night music program.[5] In 1971, Mansbridge moved to Winnipeg to continue as a reporter for the CBW radio station and in the next year, he joined CBWT-TV as a reporter.

In 1975, Mansbridge became a reporter in Saskatchewan for the CBC's flagship evening news program The National. In 1976, he relocated to Ottawa to become parliamentary correspondent.[5] Following a decade of political coverage, Mansbridge had become a substitute anchor for fellow Canadian Knowlton Nash and in 1988, CBS offered him a job as a co-anchor for a morning show. To keep Mansbridge in Canada, Nash retired from his anchoring duties at the CBC.[6]

On May 1, 1988, Mansbridge debuted as the sole anchor of The National and later served as co-anchor for CBC Prime Time News from November 1992 to Fall 1995. During his tenure as anchor, he has covered Canadian news stories including federal elections, party leadership conventions, the Meech Lake Accord negotiations, the Charlottetown Accord and its referendum, the 1995 Quebec referendum, floods in Manitoba in 1997, ice storms in Ontario and Quebec in 1998, the six days in September 2000 that marked the death and state funeral of Pierre Trudeau, the 2003 blackout across much of Eastern North America and the death and state funeral of Jack Layton. His coverage of the blackout was notable because the normally clean-shaven Mansbridge had grown a beard during his summer hiatus (as he did every summer), and the news of the blackout broke with no time for him to shave. Thus, Canadian viewers saw a bearded Peter Mansbridge reporting on the events of that day.

He has also anchored coverage of many world events, both in the studio and on the scene. In the studio, he anchored coverage of the Gulf War, the War in Kosovo, the September 11 attacks and the 2014 Parliament Hill shootings. He was on the air live when the 2003 invasion of Iraq began and anchored coverage of it. On the scene, he anchored coverage of the fall of the Berlin Wall, the funerals of Diana, Princess of Wales and Pope John Paul II, numerous royal, papal, and U.S. presidential visits to Canada, numerous Olympic Games, and the inauguration of U.S. President Barack Obama. He reported extensively from Normandy both 50 and then 60 years after D-Day and from the United Kingdom and the Netherlands for the fiftieth anniversary of V-E Day. He also reported from the Netherlands for the sixtieth anniversary of V-E Day.

In 1999, he launched a new program, Mansbridge One on One, in which he interviews newsmakers.

With the retirement of Lloyd Robertson of CTV National News on September 1, 2011, Mansbridge became the longest-serving active anchor among the big three anchors in Canada, as Dawna Friesen had taken over as anchor at Global National only in 2010.[7] Lisa LaFlamme taking over for Robertson also meant that Mansbridge is the only male anchor among the big three anchors in Canada (Mansbridge, LaFlamme, and Friesen).[8]

Personal life
Mansbridge has been married three times. His previous marriage to CBC colleague Wendy Mesley (January 6, 1989–1992) became regular tabloid fodder in Frank Magazine as their marriage ended.[9] He has been married to Canadian actress Cynthia Dale since November 14, 1998,[10] and they have a son, William, born in 1999.[11] Mansbridge has two daughters from a first marriage to Parm Dhillon which ended in 1975. He lives in Stratford, Ontario with his family, and also has a summer cottage in the Gatineau Hills.[12]

Awards and honorary degrees
Mansbridge has won several honours throughout his career, including 12 Gemini awards. In 2008, he was made an Officer of the Order of Canada, the second grade of nation's second highest civilian honour.[13][14] In that capacity, the Queen Elizabeth II Diamond Jubilee Medal was also conferred upon him in 2012.

Mansbridge has received several honorary degrees:

Year University Honorary Degree
1999 Mount Allison University, Sackville, New Brunswick Doctor of Laws[15]
2001 University of Manitoba, Winnipeg Doctor of Laws[16]
2005 Ryerson University, Toronto Doctor of Journalism[17]
2008 University of Western Ontario, London, Ontario Doctor of Laws[18]
2010 University of Windsor, Windsor, Ontario Doctor of Laws[19]
2014 Carleton University, Ottawa, Ontario Doctor of Laws[20]

CBC本来就应该代表加拿大的最高水平吧?作教材还不够,应该说作经典教材,这赞誉就高了。:p
