版權侵權成爲制約我國新媒體發展的瓶頸

The rapid growth of mobile Internet platforms is leading to disputes with traditional outlets.

移動互聯網平臺的快速發展引發了其與傳統媒介的糾紛。

Copyright disputes between new and traditional media are growing, and require a mature copyright protection system, according to a new report.

日前發佈的一項報告稱，新媒體與傳統媒體之間的版權糾紛正不斷增多，亟需出臺一項完善的版權保護制度。

The annual report, released by the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences, looked into the development of new media in China.

這份由中國社會科學院發佈的年度報告研究了我國新媒體的發展情況。

"Copyright infringement has restrained new media's development," said Tang Xujun, lead researcher of the report and director of the Institute of Journalism and Communication at CASS.

該項報告的首席研究員、社科院新聞與傳播研究所所長唐緒軍表示：“版權侵犯已成爲制約新媒體發展的瓶頸。”

This week, Beijing News, a newspaper with a reputation for investigative reports, sued , a Shandong-based news website, for illegally using more than 1,000 stories produced by the newspaper. The case was filed at the Dongcheng District People's Court.

本週，以調查性報道著稱的《新京報》起訴山東一家新聞網站--大衆網--侵權轉載該報千餘篇稿件。此案在東城區人民法院受理。

Toutiao, a headline news application, claims that it does not produce news but only transfers news to the platform. Toutiao was sued by many traditional news media organizations in 2015.

2015年，標榜“不做新聞生產者，只做新聞搬運工”的新聞聚合平臺“今日頭條”遭多家傳統新聞媒體機構起訴。

Newspapers in Hubei and Jiangxi provinces sued Toutiao in August, accusing of the application "stealing" their intellectual property. The two papers also reported how the application infringes their intellectual property.

湖北省和江西省的報社於去年8月份起訴今日頭條，指控該應用程序“竊取”他們的知識產權。此外，這兩家報社還對該應用是如何侵犯其知識產權的進行了報道。

"Toutiao does not have a team to produce news, but as a news collection platform it gathers many news products. Is it innovation or theft? There are many different views," Tang said.

唐緒軍表示：“今日頭條並沒有一個團隊來發布新聞，但作爲一個新聞聚合平臺，它收集了許多新聞產品。到底是一種創新還是一種掠奪，目前還衆說紛紜。”

"Social platforms are also becoming a breeding ground for copyright infringement," the report said.

此外，該報告還指出，“社交平臺也正成爲版權侵犯的滋生地。”
