On the Form, Content and Characteristics of Beijing Newspapers in Qing Dynasty

1. Form: Beijing Daily in Qing Dynasty refers to the newspaper where Beijing Folk Newspaper House is located, also known as "Newspaper House Beijing Daily" and "Yellow Paper Beijing Daily". As a complete form of ancient newspapers in China, it is an ancient news dissemination tool closest to modern newspapers.

2. Content: Although it is still limited to copying the palace gate, writing imperial edicts and memorials, it is regularly printed and published by private newspapers in Beijing and publicly sold to the people. On the one hand, it is sold publicly among the people and has the commodity characteristics of mass communication tools.

3. Features: Bao Jing is of positive significance to the transition from ancient newspapers to modern newspapers in China, but it can't be included in modern newspapers because it can't write news and express opinions independently, so it is not qualitatively different from Shenbao.
