國際新聞的國內化與小報化：以我國報紙報導WTO香港會議為例

The Domestication and Tabloidization of International News : How Taiwan's Newspapers Cover the WTO Meeting in Hong Kong

本研究探討我國四家報紙如何報導WTO香港會議，透過內容分析及訪談法，了解報紙將國際新聞國內化及小報化的操作手法，並檢視國家利益與市場利益對國際新聞報導的影響。研究發現，我國報紙重視圖像、衝突及煽情的報導主題，係小報化的表現手法；媒體採取派駐記者採訪、依賴我國消息來源，將國際新聞國內化，拉近與讀者的距離。本研究亦發現，不同報紙對於國家利益的認知不同，因此引用我國消息來源出現極大差異。不論是何種立場的報紙，都認為市場利益是影響報導的關鍵因素。

This paper examines the domestication and tabloidization of international news, taking the coverage of 2005 WTO meeting in Taiwan's main newspapers as an example. Using the methods of content analysis and interview, this paper aims to discover the strategies of domestication and tabloidization employed by international news as well as the impacts of national interests and market factors. This research finds that Taiwan's newspapers apply domestication strategies such as sending reporters to cover international news, relying on domestic news sources and connecting international events with domestic influences. Besides, Taiwan's newspapers showed the trend of tabloidization, emphasizing conflict and opposition in international news and applying a large number of images and pictures to tell news stories. Finally, national interests and market factors have their roles in influencing the perspectives of international news.
