Abstract

Media credibility, as a construct that has been mainly developed in the western context, hasn’t been examined thoroughly and tested in Asia cultural and social context. This research discusses and verifies media credibility as a multi-dimensional construct, with the support of empirical data. It discusses the impact of privately-owned news websites, e.g. Sina, on state-owned television stations, e.g. CCTV, with a focus on media credibility in the context of China. The data supports that media credibility includes both professional and political dimensions. The dimension of political orientation is a unique one developed directly in the context of China with empirical data support. This paper also explores contributing factors that impact media credibility in the Chinese context, and finds positive impact of privately-owned website use on media credibility of state-owned television.

媒体公信力作为一种主要在西方语境中发展起来的建构，在亚洲的文化和社会语境中还没有得到充分的检验和检验。本研究在实证数据的支持下，将媒体公信力作为一个多维结构进行了探讨和验证。它讨论了私营新闻网站（如新浪）对国有电视台（如中央电视台）的影响，重点是中国背景下的媒体可信度。数据支持媒体可信度包括专业和政治两个方面。政治取向维度是在中国背景下直接发展起来的一个独特维度，有实证数据支持。本文还探讨了中国背景下影响媒体公信力的因素，发现民营网站使用对国有电视台媒体公信力的积极影响。
