爱因斯坦的小板凳

今天读陀思妥耶夫斯基,读到他写一种人:总要攒足全身力气,在离场前当众说一句漂亮话,来一个讽刺,赢得满堂彩。

他瞧不上这种做法,认为那是一种身不由己。

身不由己,就是不自由。

每做一期节目,我都挣扎一次,因为讽刺很容易,理解却要时间。

今年做的几个人物——江青、王洪文、释永信——是一个训练。我想克服写作时的讽刺或感伤,不只是因为新闻伦理,也是因为写着写着,它们让我起腻:底下的事实不扎实,里面是空的。现实有荒诞,但荒诞里有一层一层的事实,结结实实。信息与信息并置,人与人冲...

灵魂里有铁的人

我只见过刘宗坤一次,没说几句话。

他来西班牙徒步,走圣雅各之路。男人们聊自行车和户外包,我跟他太太聊天,中间他提到奈保尔,我看了他一眼,只见餐厅暗灯下,一个剃了光头的人,脸上有点凶狠。

听说他是律师,我问了个法律问题,他每句话都像生铁。我看法不同,事后看是我愚蠢。此后对他的专业判断,我不用怀疑,也不问第二次。

后来,他问我YouTube的事。我自己也刚做,哪有什么心得。

有人建议他,闷头做一百期。

此人确实凶狠,八个多月,做了一百期,这需要铁律。

他的节目是评论,...

谢谢你也在那里

不少观众问我采访徐宗懋节目里《奉献》的吉他曲来自哪?它来自一位朋友的弹唱,我把完整版放在这里。

歌声出处是杨渡笔下1989年6月2日凌晨三点的天安门广场。采访是一个承诺:我和你一起,站在那里。看见有代价,但我的心在看到节目留言后平息。

其中一位写:“节目播出后,音乐网站上这一首歌下面的评论全是您的观众的留言。这是我们的默契。”

再听这歌,想起杨渡写的那句:

“她的语气如此平静,像只是在说一桩事实,一样证据。我也随之沉静了下来,融入这悲痛的大洪流里。”

我只是接受它发生

十五年前我采访徐宗懋时,不知道他曾被子弹穿喉而过。一位记者说,他这些年一直不愿意提这段往事,你说服了他。

不,我没有。说服一个人很累,也很危险,多数情况下我只是接受采访发生,以它自己的节奏和方式。四月,徐宗懋第一次告诉我这件事,非常简略,没有提问的余地。

说话的念头是在被访者心里孵化的,有生命的东西需要时间。他陆续发来一些资料,大部分是他后来三十年做的事,就像要包裹住那个脆弱的,轻微勃动的东西。近两个月后,才是他受伤的照片,它钉在我脑子里,两天里挥之不去,明白为什么他把它...

多么单纯,多么险峻

一个多月没更新,谢谢关心。我已处理完手头事务,回到日常工作——发布了史云峰的节目,完成《王洪文》的完整版修订,放在新频道【卷外】。

所谓“卷外”,如陈虻说,做完一期节目之后,坐下来总结:查证、校验各方包括自己的偏见。错了,承认,修正,公诸于众。

我的工作受益于这样的交流。关于史云峰,此前我写过一篇帖子,觉得够了。但此后陆续收到来信:请用视频讲出他的故事。

我回复,我所知道的有限,已经写完。

其中一位观众回信:

“还是请你说出来。因为他的孩子还...
