百年前Newsroom牆上的標語
文○沈雲驄(數位時代，2015/11)
「精確，精確，精確!」(Accuracy, Accuracy, Accuracy!)，「即時，謙恭，誠懇!」(Promptness, Courtesy, Geniality!)
那是百年前美國報業先鋒《紐約世界報》，辦公室牆上的標語。走進那個年代的美國媒體，常可見到類似的口號。
當然，標語早已隨該報倒閉而灰飛煙滅，今天的媒體更沒把這些字眼──除了「即時」二字──放在心上了。但讀者真的不再需要精確，不再想看謙恭與誠懇的媒體了嗎? 如果今天的媒體要在自家牆上貼標語，會貼什麼呢? 是社群、互動、分享，還是按讚數、點閱率、大數據?....
The disciplines Fleming absorbed as a correspondent for Reuters in the 1930s made him a stickler for accuracy, and the exhibition shows how this fed into Bond’s guns.

Kushner separates himself with scalpel-like precision from the known facts about the Russia affair.
As she did in her Pulitzer Prize-winning collection of stories “Interpreter of Maladies” (1999) and her dazzling 2003 novel “The Namesake,” Ms. Lahiri writes about these people in “Unaccustomed Earth” with an intimate knowledge of their conflicted hearts, using her lapidary eye for detail to conjure their daily lives with extraordinary precision:

"Baroque Era telescopes and astrolabes and the precision-engineered innards of a humanoid automaton who can write her name in a neater hand than your own on a piece of paper: these are the oddities and near-Faustian feats of human ingenuity that fill to overflowing several packed rooms at The Met."

on Page 10: "... Cost is often the determining factor in the size of the sample. The question then arises whether the accuracy obtainable at this cost will be satisfactory. Statistical theory and knowledge of costs make possible prediction of the precision obtainable for a given total cost. ..."
on Page 26: "... of the uses of the data to be obtained. Statistical theory helps to avoid 2 types of error: 1. More precision than the purpose requires; 2. Insufficient precision for the purpose. ..."
Variance is an imperfect measure of precision unless the distribution of the estimates is normal; Sir Ronald Fisher, Statistical Methods and Scientific Inference (Oliver and Boyd, 1956):
