在本年度的英国选秀节目《Britain’s Got Talent》上,10岁小女孩Holly因无法承受巨大压力而中断演唱,最后评委网开一面,给了她二度表演的机会。为此,英国打算出台新规,限制儿童在公众媒体上的曝光率,以免他们过早承受不必要的压力。只有新闻镜头里和接受采访的儿童可以不受此限。It is understood that only children in news footage and vox pops would be exempt under the proposed regulations. (From The Times, August 15, 2009: New laws could mean children disappear from TV, say broadcasters)
Vox pops是vox pop(vox populi的简写)的复数形式,noun [C, U] (BrE, informal) the opinion of members of the public, especially when it is broadcast or published,民众之声,公众舆论。
*The reporter got some vox pops in the city square to see what people thought of the country's new flag.
