新闻奖不仅生产出特定的“客体”（即被加冕的作品），而且也生产出特定的“主体”（即获奖者）。本文利用三套可靠的统计数据，对于性别、年龄、新闻年资、民族、教育获得、政治面貌、专业职称，以及行政职衔等社会学变量进行了系统的检视，据此为中国最高官方新闻奖长江韬奋新闻奖的获奖者刻画出了一幅集体素描。

Cultural awards produce not only its specific “object” (i.e., the crowned work) but also its specific “subject” (the winner), with journalism awards no exception. This paper draws on three different sets of statistical data to depict a collective portrait for the winners of the highest official award ( i.e., the Changjiang & Taofen Journalism Award), according to a whole set of sociological variables, including gender, age, journalistic seniority, nationality, education attainment, political affiliation, professional title and administrative post.
