Disaster is a fact of common concern,with the high news value, thedisaster news has been the focus of media coverage.There are a lot of reports on domestic disaster news and related research,but there is not enough research on foreign disaster news about the domesticmedia, it is an urgent need of research topics on how the domestic medianarrative the foreign disaster news, how impact on the audience wider. Also thisis the significance of the study of the topics.The paper mainly uses the method of data analysis and documentaryresearch, through analysis of the narrative features in news reports to draw themedia guidance of public opinion, political stance, ideology to reflects theattitude of foreign disaster events and reporting features about our domesticpaper media,.In this paper,compare the news reports of Ms9.0earthquake occurred inJapan in March11,2011from " People’s Daily”,“Ta Kung Pao" and "SouthernWeekend” for the study text. Based on related theory of Narratology and News Narratology, I selected representative of the news reports to compare andanalysis. Compare them from the voice of narrative news, the grammar of newsnarrative, news narration, the audience acceptation of news narrative to analysis,then summed up the difference of news narrative among different media’sforeign disaster news coverage, and the different news narrative feature ofdifferent media.By comparison, we can see the narrative characteristics of the differentnewspapers."People’s Daily" as a central media, it issued the voice of thecountry, represents the national spirit, national interests and the country’s image.Its language of their news is accurate, cautious, solemn,serious and politicalimplications strong, In the whole newspaper, but in the “People’s Daily”,thestructure of news narrative is relatively simple, the narrative framework of themode type of news is apparent and not flexible enough.Ta Kung Pao is a comprehensive private newspapers, their news coverageis relatively neutral and objective, less limitations, on behalf of the commonvoice of the people, deliver information timely and comprehensive to the audience, the news narrative structure is more complex than the "People’s Daily",the language simple, objective, more lively, relaxed, and the audience is moreeasily to accept."Southern Weekend" represents the common voice of the people, throughinformation to convey a meaning to the audience. It can make people to reflect,ponder, which can appreciate the resonance of the sublimation of the spirit level.Its news narrative structure more complex, the terminology is also moreprofound, it reflected spiritual things. The drawback is that the "highbrow".Forordinary people, they cannot understand the intention of the newspaper reportscompletely, making the scope of its spread has been limited.Different media have different characteristics, but news reports narrativecharacteristics is difficult to judge their advantages and disadvantages, good orbad. The evaluation criteria is that the reader’s acceptance, is the reader’s likesand dislikes to choose, for the purpose of the needs of readers. It is not simplypandering to the reader. We need satisfy the information need of readers andguide the correct guidance of public opinion at the same time, not only provide the real objective and comprehensive information, but also has a uniquenarrative art, both "soul" and "form" is the best news narrative style.
