In 2020,the new coronavirus swept the world.It is another major public health incident after SARS in 2002.We have too many firsts in this plague.It is the first time that my country has launched a city-based blockade rescue.For the first time that all people’s homes are fighting against the “epidemic”,the direct reporting of infectious diseases and public emergencies monitoring information network across the country has been tested for the first time...Too many firsts happened this year,and the government,citizens,and the media interacted with each other.Together they fought a historic tough battle.In the face of the unknown and tested nature,we should always remain in awe and rationality,sum up and reflect on our behavior,and prepare for the next sudden bad news.The development of the press has never been a cycle of reincarnation again and again.This article takes all 114 news reports related to the “COVID-19” epidemic in Caixin Weekly in 2020 as the research object,based on news narratology,using text analysis,and interspersed with the same period "Sanlian Life Weekly" and "China News Weekly" Magazine related reports are compared and analyzed,and narrative analysis is carried out on the three aspects of "narrator","narrative angle" and "narrative time",and on this basis,the "narrative strategy" of news media under major public health incidents is carried out.discuss.The details are as follows:First of all,in the introduction part,this article mainly sorts out domestic and foreign news narratives,clarifies the typicality of the narrative "story" of Caixin Weekly magazine,which is the main research object of this article,and selects the other two marketizations with the same distinctive style.The magazine "Sanlian Life Weekly" magazine and "China News Weekly" magazine conducted a comparative study,clarifying the necessity and feasibility of this article.The first chapter mainly focuses on the overall analysis of the " COVID-19" pneumonia reports in Caixin Weekly.Specifically,the 114 " COVID-19" epidemic reports in Caixin Weekly are based on the classification of financial news by Professor Mo Linhu.Based on standard statistical analysis,the Caixin Weekly magazine has completed the environmental monitoring tasks of news media and viewed the "COVID-19" epidemic from a financial perspective,providing explanations,regulations,and socialization functions.The second chapter mainly starts from the narrator,using text analysis to explain the public narrator,hidden narrator,and absent narrator of Caixin Weekly,and then discusses the meaning of narrator.This article believes that news is like " "Battlefield",a reasonable choice of "narrator" is like "arranging troops." The news media chooses different ways of narrator expression in order to provide information as much as possible to express their position,and to pursue writing skills.Chapter 3 mainly starts from a narrative perspective,using text analysis to elaborate on the zero focus,external focus,and internal focus of Caixin Weekly,and then discusses that news media can better present the historical picture of the epidemic by using a composite perspective.Can look at the epidemic from different perspectives,get different facts,and get different views.In addition,the news media’s internal and external focus on financial news is a manifestation of a media’s humanistic spirit.The fourth chapter mainly starts from the narrative time,using text analysis to separately elaborate the narrative sequence,narrative time interval,and narrative frequency of Caixin Weekly,and then explores the combination of different narrative sequence,narrative time interval,and narrative frequency.To different expression effects.On the one hand,the news media connects events that are originally time-space dimensions with causal logic,which can reveal deeper facts.On the other hand,the news media can flexibly use narrative time in the overall report to form a series of reports with their own characteristics.Chapter 5 is based on the text analysis of the first four chapters,combined with the news production process,starting from the three aspects of narrator,narrative perspective,and narrative time,discussing the narrative strategy capabilities that news media should have in public health events: First,news The media should maintain the ability to continuously question the narrator and ensure that the narrator’s voice is fully expressed and understood as much as possible.Secondly,the attitude of journalists on the news scene determines the tone of the news,but only by digging into the incident from different angles can the complexity of the incident be presented as much as possible and the fact itself is approached.Finally,the news media should have the ability to use narrative time flexibly,whether it is dealing with a single report or a series of reports,in order to integrate ideas into the story,lead the event to the deeper part of history,and complete comprehensive and in-depth reports.A news report on a major public health event cannot be undertaken by a single report or a certain news media,let alone a paper that can make a jump to a conclusion."The news reports of the epidemic are sorted out and analyzed,in order to provide journalists with theoretical references and experience for the study of news narratives.
