On News Reports Of "the Urban Marginalized"

TV media represented by CCTV have geared to common people's daily life and have made certain achievements. However, it is still a narrative blind spot for most plane media. From the year of 2004 on, the second news section of the"South Weekend"has been centering on the common people, the reporting style being constantly innovated as well. Selecting two articles on this section as its research objects, the thesis makes a deep analysis of these two news texts with"the urban marginalized", a sociological term, as its connecting thread. By telling regular days'"rifles"of"the urban marginalized", the narration itself comes out to be the presentation of and enquiry into the meaning of common people's life, and overthrows the traditional"mainstream narration"in content. The narrative style of"magnetic structure"exhibits the living surroundings of the narration body more forcefully, although it dissects the typical linear structure conventionally used in in-depth reports. It is also helpful to promote the narratees'reading of the fickle life of this special group, arousing interactively true feeling. The intensive humane care shines out of plain words. Slow and subtle narrative tone intensifies the narrative tension of the texts. The breakthrough of the"South Weekend"is sure to have a profound leading significance for plane media.
