摘要

平台化被用来描述脸书、谷歌、推特、WhatsApp和TikTok等平台对人们交流和访问信息(包括新闻)的方式变得越来越重要。但是,不同国家的新闻媒体系统在多大程度上已经平台化了?利用来自46个国家的在线调查数据,我们发现:(a)尽管超过90%的互联网用户至少使用一个社交平台,但使用它们访问新闻的比例存在很大的国家差异;以及(b)仍然直接进入新闻网站和应用程序的比例存在很大的国家差异。此外,我们发现(c)国家差异至少部分反映了路径依赖性,更具体地说,是报纸市场的历史实力导致新闻平台化水平较低,直接访问水平持续较高。这些发现显示了平台化在世界不同地区的变化,为捕捉其随时间的变化提供了一个框架,并强调了将平台研究和比较媒体系统研究结合起来的潜在好处。

Comparing the platformization of news media systems: A cross-country analysis
Platformization has been used to describe how platforms such as Facebook, Google, Twitter, WhatsApp and TikTok have become increasingly important for how people communicate and access information, including news. But to what extent have news media systems in different countries become platformized? Using online survey data from 46 countries, we show that: (a) although over 90% of internet users use at least one social platform, there are large country differences in the proportion that use them to access news; and (b) large country difference in the proportion that still go directly to news websites and apps. Furthermore, we find (c) that country differences at least partly reflect path dependency, more specifically the historic strength of the newspaper market leading to lower levels of news platformization and continued high levels of direct access. These findings show how platformization varies in different parts of the world, provide a framework for capturing how it changes over time, and highlight the potential benefits of bringing together platform studies and comparative media systems research.
