A Critical Discourse Analysis of Chinese and American News Reports on the Hong Kong Riot
摘要
Critical Discourse Analysis (CDA) is an effective way to explore the hidden ideology in news reports. Based on Fairclough's three-dimensional discourse analysis model, CDA was carried out from three dimensions of text, discourse practice and social practice. In this paper, four reports on the Hong Kong riot are selected from Xinhua News Agency and the New York Times respectively as the research objects. The result of this study shows that Chinese and American reports are similar in text and discourse practice, but the attitudes and public opinions conveyed by the authors are different. To be precise, the Chinese media hold a firm position on the issue of Hong Kong's internal affairs and create an image of a responsible country. However, the American media focused on human rights of Hong Kong rioters, trying to lead the public opinion. This study can be helpful deepening the understandings on the reasons why two media make different reports on the Hong Kong riots from different perspectives and eventually to able to promote the development of critical discourse analysis. For the former, it is because there are huge differences in social practice, which is the result of various factors such as the media social environment, ideology and power of the two countries.
