迈克尔·舒德森（Michael Schudson，1995年）在研究电视对美国新闻和总统职位的影响时，问题不是电视作为抽象技术，而是关于作为文化机构和形式的美国电视。使用的是，美国的电视都吸收了过去的新闻报道和发展的新惯例，这两个习惯都没有提供叙事和代表形式。这样的电视，但只有“这部电视，我们的电视”（Schudson，1995年，第54页）。 。与中国的互联网相比，中国的互联网“本地化”而不是“本地化”。 Intranet。用户实践和YouTube视频和博客等写作类型。
In studying the impact of television on American journalism and the presidency, Michael Schudson (1995) writes that the question is not about television as an abstract technology, but about American television as a cultural institution and form. The ways in which a new technology is used depend on preexisting conventions and social relations. Thus television in the United States both absorbs conventions of news reporting from the past and develops new conventions. It influences American journalism and politics by providing forms of narration and representation. In this sense, there is no television as such, but only “this television, our television” (Schudson, 1995, p. 54). Can we speak of the Chinese Internet in the same way that Schudson speaks of American television? There are obvious differences between television and the Internet. Television channels are limited in any region of the world, while the Internet is arguably the most global of contemporary media technologies. I will argue, however, that the Internet in China has become domesticated to the extent that it is now possible, even necessary, to talk about the Chinese Internet, as opposed to the Internet in China. “Domesticated” heremeans “localized”more than “tamed”. “Localized”, however, does notmean that the Chinese Internet is not global or that it has become an intranet. It still has global features, and yet it has assumed distinctly Chinese characteristics. The Chinese Internet is a cultural form much like American television, or British television for that matter. Internet as a cultural form refers to the various types of network services, user practices, and genres of writing, such as YouTube videos and blogs. These are used differently in different societies and necessarily carry the imprints of their users.
