It's been a while since I posted one of these, in fact it's been a long time since I posted anything, as I inch closer to 2000 posts without much of an idea of what to do for the milestone.

Anyway, this time I've stepped up the challenge. I fully admit that I'm in way over my head with this text, I just wanted to give it a go. This is a sample question from the entrance exam to one of the Korean universities a few years ago, so it's supposed to be hard, and this piece in particular is pretty abstract and hard to get your head around. Anyway, here's my attempt:

+ Show Spoiler [Source text] +

The problem of evil has long been the province of philosophy. Philosophy is not particularly interested in that question anymore. (Nor is the world much interested in philosophy, but that is another matter.) Journalism has taken up the slack. Unfortunately, journalism is not terribly well equipped to handle it, principally because journalism is a medium of display and demonstration. When evil is the subject, the urge to display leads to dark places indeed.

The principal defense against these charges is perhaps best called the cult of objectivity. Journalists are led to believe, and some may actually believe, that they only hold a mirror to life. And mirrors can hardly be accused of bad faith. After all, the idea of neutrality inheres in the very word medium. There is a story out there to be got, and as Sam Donaldson, prominent preacher of this doctrine, puts it, "It's our job to cover the story . . . we bring information."

Not even physicists, practitioners of a somewhat more exact science, have so arrogant a belief in the out there. For 60 years, physics has learned to live with its Uncertainty Principle: that the act of observing an event alters its nature. Journalism continues to resist the idea. And journalism, which shines lights at people, not electrons, does more than alter. It creates. First, out of the infinite flotsam of "events" out there, it makes "stories." Then, by exposing them (and their attached people, ideas, crimes), it puts them on the map. "As seen on TV" gives substance to murder. The parade of artifacts is varied, but the effect is the same: coverage makes them real.

오랫동안 악이란 철학계의 전유물이였다. 이제는 철학이 이 문제에 대해 관심이 별로 없다 (그리고 세계가 철학에 관심이 별로 없는데 이 것은 다른 문제이다). 철학 대신에 언론계는 이 소재를 잡았다. 아쉽게도, 언론계는 이 문제를 제대로 다룰 능력이 없다. 왜냐하면 언론은 본래 보여주기와 입증의 방식을 위주로 하는 매질이기 때문이다. 악은 소재가 되면 이런 보여주려 하는 마음이 어두운 곳으로 이어지기 일쑤이다.

이런 소추를 반박하는 주요한 것은 아마“객관주의의 예찬”이라고 할 수 있다. 기자들은 자기가 생명의 거울을 가지고 있다고 믿도록 하며 일부분은 실제로 그렇게 생각한다. 거울이라면 불신이라 나무랄 수 없는 것이다. 요컨데 “매질”이란 자제로 중성적인 뜻를 지닌다. 밖에 취재할 만한 이야기가 있는데 이런 교리를 표방하는 유명한 인물인 새므 더날드손은 이렇게 말했다: “취재하는 것은 우리의 의무이다. 우리가 정보를 가져온다.”

더 정밀한 과학 영역을 종사하는 물리학자들도 이렇게 오묘한 것들을 거만하게 믿지 않는다. 60년간 물리학은 불확실성의 원리에 익숙하고 결국 받아들였다. 즉, 현상을 보는 행위가 자제로 그 현상의 본질을 변화시킨다. 언론계는 오히려 이 원리를 계속 받아들이지 않는다. 그리고 언론계가 다루는 것은 전자가 아니라 사람이다. 언론계는 먼저 세상의 수많은 “사건” 중 이야기거리를 찾고 이런 이야기들을 공개함으로써 (관련된 사람, 사상이나 법죄가 모두 포함되면서) 유명하게 만든다. “텔레비전에 나온 대로”라면 살인은 현실이 된다. 보는 것들이 다양하지만 효과는 마찬가지다: 게재되어야 현실이 된다.


Questions
Pretty much everything, but especially basic mistakes...even with some of the simpler sentences, I don't feel that confident about my accuracy.

Edit@Spieltor: perhaps I wasn't clear, the text itself is not a question, the question is "here's a text, translate it into Korean"

it looks like a good synopsis or statement and not really a question. is it questioning whether journalism is bad, or whether journalism should police itself or try to ride a more neutral line when reporting, or whether evil is real or subjective, or what?
