News media are influenced by many social factors, such as group, industry, organization, ideology, economic interests. If we do not understand these factors, we will can not really understand the m ass media and the news.News discourse analysis method provides a new perspective for the study of news.This method pays attention to the text part for analyzing the various levels of news discourse structure, as well as the context about the cognitive and social factors, conditions, limitations or effects which influence the forming of the text structure.So, by combining the text of the media discourse and the social context of the text, we can make a m ore comprehensive understanding of the news discourse.Anti-Japanese was rela ted to the survival of the Chinese nation issues.And the three im portant newspapers could realize the im portance of transmission of information and the public opinion guidance.Through defining the same report, and study the same subject news of the three newspapers,we can clarify their own discourse characteristics.Thus, it is a dialectical view of the gains and losses of the three newspapers in the war of resistance, which has positive significance for the study of the media in wartime.In the aspects of discourse st ructure, the three p apers were the same in essentials while differing in minor points.Exposuring to the background of th e Anti-Japanese War, in addition to the factors of the media itself, the reports of the three newspapers had many similarities.First, from the perspective of context,The background of Anti-Japanesethe war made the three papers not only report the tipcal wars comprehensively but also propagate of resistanc of the war.Second, from the characteristics of the news genre, the news of the nature of the information, the principle of authenticity and objectivity of the principle wer e the factors whic h driven the three papers having something in commom.On the other hand, because of the influence of social factors, such as politics, culture, history, the th ree newspapers have their own characteristics in the discourse of Anti-Japanese War.Xinhua Daily as the official newspaper of the Comm unist Party Chinese, maintained close contact with the majority of the rural areas and farmers.Discourse text used much id ioms to express the the colloquia l style and paid attention to the propa ganda and mobilization s on the base of the cognitive and position of the mass.At the time of national peril, the three papers always led the public opi nion to fight together.There were many related text structure characteris tics can be s een. Such as they focused on the background of the incident, reported a lot of comments,and used more persuasion effect in vocabulary. Ta Kung Pao advertised as a "no party" centris t newspaper,which represented the position of the intellectuals.The article s cited the classical sentence that made the overall style with a strong culture.In the war of resistance against Japan, it considered not onl y the national unity, the ideal of common resistance against Japan, but also the support of national government’s rule.On the one hand, th ere were no radical words,and the subjective vocabulary, sentence patterns, sentence structure wer e relatively few.Besides the text of the paragraph focuse d on the dissemination of information by carrying lots of information.On the other hand it also ignored the functions of Anti-Japanese War Mobilization, and even shielded the r esults made by Communist Party of China.As the party’s propaganda tool, Central Daily had always been the support of the national government. It Reflected th e typical characteristics of written language in the text expression,sa feguard the seriousness of party newspaper, and used less subjective words. In the early days of the Anti-Japanese War,it could focused on the the public opinion to guide the unity of the Anti-Japanese W ar, and published a lot of information and comments on the war. With the deterioration of the relationship between the Kuomintang and the Comm unist Party of China, "anti Co mmunist" had become the focus of the publicity.So it could often see its self-interest in the war m obilization deliberately and shielded important war information.The media is very im portant to mobilize during the war.Learning from the three newspaper reports in th e war of resistance, medias should take the overall situati on as the m ost important and adopt flexible discourse strategy.
