Possibility of journalism in China

自从1978年底中国决心实行改革开放以来，中国已经进入了一个历史性的转折点。此后，中国媒体发生了重大变化，部分实现了经济上的独立，扩大了媒体自主的空间。因此，媒体的目标是追求政治独立。本研究试图通过深度访谈和新闻分析，厘清媒体与政治、经济和社会环境的关系，揭示中国媒体新闻专业主义的发展趋势。

China has entered into a historic turning point since this country was determined to carry out the reform and opening up in late 1978. Since then, Chinese media has had a significant change and partially achieved some economic independence, expanding the space for media autonomy. As a result, the media is aiming at pursuing the political independence. The present study attempts to clarify the relationship between the media and the political, economic and social environment, revealing the trend of devolvement of journalistic professionalism in Chinese media by using depth interview and news analysis.
