With the fast development of new media that is represented by the internet, the producing and operating ways of news has changed a lot. One of them is that common persons have become a kind of important power in news reporting with the help of improved technology. Different from traditional media where news craft are the dominant power in news reporting, this kind of grassroots news is called citizen journalism. Although under the pressure of new media, tradition media are also trying their best to attract more common persons to report news; new media are the key stage and the vital force of the development of citizen journalism.The status quo and developing ways of citizen journalism are far different in different countries. We can hardly see clearly the problems in the development of citizen journalism in our country and find positive and effective solutions unless through comparison. The healthy growth of citizen journalism will not only advance the reform and progress of media, but also influence the construction of a harmonious society a lot.
