The "feeling show" column of HuBei metropolitan newspaper has two distinct characteristics which are worthy of our attention: First, the majority of speaker is women. From the external morphology speaking, it will not only that women were included in the text, and give them to their own statement but also the women be able to appear in the eyes of the world as the initiator. In this sense, it undoubtedly has a cultural rebel and reconstruction meaning. And if from the point of view of feminism, as a new format of media coverage and feminist texts on the history, Can "feeling show" change women from "be talked " to "talk" ?and errct the "male-centered" discourse? resume the silent history of women into "Visable " and "audible"? Secondly,this news genres includes both the literary and news features. It is a unique style which ranged from news and literature.Does it have other implication from the narrative perspective ?And what is it's ideology which embodies?Based on the above understanding , this article believes that as popular format as gaining countless audiences ,it is necessary to anlysize its implication in the text of the ideological connotations and the social,historical context,make a clear understanding and interpretation of this new format.This paper also intended to use Feminist Narrative theory to make a discourse analysis from the narrative discourse,mode,perspective and effect level and also study about its social and historical context. The analysis reveals that the "feeling show " column implies a certain amount of "gender politics" which reflects the gender control and anti-controlled power relations. It distorts the image of women, deny women their own value and the result is the media and the "male-centred" social context "conspired" together.
