列宁《关于“出版自由”》一文思想丰富:出版自由具有鲜明的阶级性和党性,是相对的;坚持出版自由就是炮制资产阶级舆论的自由;坚持出版自由就是坚持建立资产阶级政治组织的自由;出版自由不可能医治无产阶级政党面临的困难和问题。当前我国“新闻自由”论的主要观点与列宁在《关于“出版自由”》一文中所批判的主张,在实质上具有惊人的相似性。要认清“新闻自由”论的本质与危害,巩固马克思主义在意识形态领域的指导地位。 Lenin’s “Free Press” is rich in thought: publishing freedom has its own distinct class and party spirit, its adherence to freedom of the press is the freedom to concoct bourgeois public opinion, and its adherence to freedom of press means the freedom to adhere to the establishment of bourgeois political organizations ; Publishing freedom can not cure the difficulties and problems facing proletarian parties. At present, the main point of view on the “freedom of the press” theory in China is essentially strikingly similar to Lenin’s criticism in his article “On the Freedom of the Press”. We must recognize the nature and harms of the theory of “press freedom” and consolidate the guiding position of Marxism in the field of ideology.
