Televised news interviews are important for political candidates and frequently reported in newspapers. This study explores how newspapers select material from televised political interviews for their reports. After analyzing the press coverage of Taiwan's 2010 municipal mayoral candidates' TV interviews by the four main newspapers in Taiwan, we found that the reports emphasized 'the candidates' future political plans' and 'election prospects,' and noticed more of their 'attack rhetoric' during the televised interviews. News reports pay greater attention to the interviewees' utterances and less to the interviewers' questions and mediatory role, increasing the news interviewer's neutrality. |
