摘要
美国电视节目《每日秀》激发了世界各地的创意人才,他们将美国的政治讽刺新闻形式适应自己的政治环境。其中一个例子是由Brian Tseng在2018年至2020年间主持,由台湾STR网络制作的《The Night Night Show》。本文并非将《夜夜秀》视为美国文化和政治模式在世界各地传播的结果,而是将《夜夜秀》对美国讽刺新闻形式的改编置于台湾近代史上华语笑声和讽刺政治话语的语境中。它认为,虽然该剧对美国讽刺新闻形式的改编表明,讽刺作为一种跨国凝聚力,可以打破语言和国家的界限,但它也让这种美国形式受到了批判性的审视。特别是,在当地语境中,对新闻媒体的主要文化理解是哗情主义和宣传主义,而不是真实的,这与美国讽刺新闻形式的核心概念“真实性”相冲突。
Satirizing News Media, Changing Taiwan’s Feelings: The Night Night Show with Brian Tseng’s Adaptation of the American Satire News Format
The US television program The Daily Show has inspired creative talents worldwide to adapt the American political satire news formats to their own political environments. One example is The Night Night Show, hosted by Brian Tseng between 2018 and 2020 and produced by the STR Network from Taiwan. Instead of approaching the show as the result of the diffusion of the US cultural and political model into the rest of the world, this article contextualizes The Night Night Show’s adaptation of an American satirical news format in the Sinophone political discourse of laughter and satire in the modern history of Taiwan. It argues that while the show’s adaptation of an American satirical news format demonstrates how satire can dismantle linguistic and national boundaries as a transnational bonding force, it also brings this American format to critical scrutiny. In particular, the principal cultural understanding of news media as sensationalistic and propagandist instead of truthful in the local context contests the notions of “truthiness” central to the American satire news formats.
