Media Molding Study Of China National Image Through The China

Recently,the studies on the China-related events reported on the New York Times, a mainstream media in the USA,become a hotspot in academic research.The studies play a significant role in understaning the attitude and view points of China from American important media,acknowledging the elements about influencing the Amreican media building up the Chinese country image,exploiing the counter measure of our external communication,and finally build up a better country image both in China and abroad.In this paper,I explored the Chinese coutry image made by the American mainstream media and the relationship between them with the ways of content analysis and qualitative analysis on the sample of China -related events(Lhasa 3·14, Overseas Torch Relay,and Wenchuan 5·12 Earthquake) reported on the New York Times in the year of 2008.Additionaly,how to report in an objective way to influence foreign audience is also the keypoint I mentioned in my eassay.Nowdays,accompany with the increasing fierce competitionin around the whole world,we should start from the foreign audience needs of information to enhance our ability of competing with the USA maistream media or media group on the international public right and discourse rights.It is better for us to realize and analyze the Chian-related reports objectively and deeply,seek enlightenment and learn from it.
