Features: This book places the development of Chinese and foreign news within their respective different starting points and levels to conduct a comprehensive cultural comparative study of various aspects of the press, journalism theory, and news communication. First, starting from the different connections between the press, journalism theory, news communication, and culture, it conducts a cultural comparative study of Chinese and foreign news. This not only reveals the different cultural forms of Chinese and foreign news but also provides preliminary theoretical attempts for the construction of the discipline of comparative journalism. Second, it focuses on the relationship between the development of Chinese and foreign press and the transformation of human society, particularly the practical relationship between the Chinese press and the press of other countries, to demonstrate the universal tendencies and national differences in the cultural development of Chinese and foreign news. Third, it conducts an academic analysis of the basic composition and theoretical connotations of Chinese and foreign journalism theory, and then carries out a comprehensive theoretical comparison to reveal the historical origins and practical influences of Chinese and foreign journalism theory in terms of culture. Finally, it discusses the system structure of Chinese and foreign news communication, especially the two key links of control and production in the news communication process, to demonstrate the institutional adjustments and market trends of Chinese and foreign news communication in terms of culture. This book is an academic work on comparative journalism research that is rare in China at present, with a certain degree of innovation, and has considerable academic reference value for conducting cultural comparative studies of Chinese and foreign news.
