The main carrier of news communication and its characteristics

News communication tool is the carrier of transmitting news information; Newspapers, news agencies, radio, television and the Internet are the main news media.

Various forms of news media have their own advantages and disadvantages.

First, newspapers:

Newspaper is a visual media, which has the characteristics of strong preservation, strong selectivity and suitable for conveying in-depth information.

The working procedures of newspapers are numerous and complicated, and the timeliness is poor. Its text dissemination requires readers to be literate, which limits the scope of readers.

Newspapers are weak in appeal, and words are far less real than sounds and images.

Second, broadcasting.

Through the volume, tone and timbre of sound, broadcasting can fully show the individual color of broadcast news, while the real-time application of nonverbal symbols, sounds, music and other sounds of broadcasting itself can show the authenticity of news, enhance the appeal and acceptability of news, and even create an immersive feeling through the imagination and reasoning of the audience. Broadcasting belongs to audio-visual media.

The advantages and disadvantages of broadcast sound symbols are always accompanied; The colloquialism of sound language makes it difficult for in-depth reports to be like words.

Its language and voice are friendly, realistic and vivid, infectious, fast in communication and timely. It can simultaneously report the events that are happening, which has good permeability and wide influence, and is not limited by space and conditions, but the preservation and selectivity of broadcasting are weak.

Third, television.

Compared with other news media, TV has the largest audience and can be said to be the most influential and influential media.

Television combines images, sounds, words and other forms on the screen, so that people can accept audio-visual and written communication at the same time in omnipotent language form; Another outstanding feature of it is that it does not require high educational level of the recipients, which greatly expands the scope of the recipients and makes news communication enter a generally accepted era.

Compared with the written information in the newspaper, the image language of TV has more direct information stimulation and power. With vivid and intuitive images, it bypasses the rational thinking of people's brains, points directly at people's hearts, causes the shock of the mind and produces timely effects. It not only enhances the audience's live performance, but also greatly enhances the credibility of the news.

Television also has shortcomings in news dissemination:

Some important news or some details of important news are not always visible, which means that TV cannot record in its own unique picture way. In fact, when TV can't show its own style, official newspapers often have a chance to shine, so the two are complementary. Television, like broadcasting, has the characteristics of timely broadcasting, which has formed objective restrictions on people's arbitrary viewing.

Fourth, the Internet.

The characteristics of Internet, such as large capacity, high speed, hypertext, interactivity and multimedia, make news communication develop in a faster, more convenient, more diversified and personalized direction.

Internet news is truly global news. With its own technical advantages, it not only provides the public with the freedom of spontaneous reception, but also provides resistance for all possible restrictions on sending and receiving, making online news form a unique public opinion environment for certain events, problems, people and phenomena.

Network news communication has changed the relationship among news sources, disseminators and recipients. In the traditional news media,

The news received by people is processed by professional news dissemination, so it is difficult to directly face the original information source. The network makes some news meet the public directly without being checked or filtered by professional news gatekeepers.

Network media can use its own technical means to restore and reproduce some news events in the form of images.

Network media defects:

1, news authenticity is challenged.

2. The acquisition of network news needs certain material ability and knowledge and technology ability.

3. The massive nature of online news information, the existence of redundant information, junk information and harmful information have seriously interfered with people's effective acquisition and understanding of news.
