(Background information:
新聞媒介的基本類型和特點各是什么？
六種主要的大眾傳媒：口語、書籍、報紙、廣播、電視、互聯網。
1.報紙。便于保存和檢索；新聞性較強；讀者可以反復閱讀，認真思考。但是，它受讀者文化程度的限制，發行需要一定的時間。
2.新聞雜志，是以傳播和解釋國內外重大新聞為主要內容的一種雜志，由于出版周期不同，分為周刊、半月刊和月刊等。周刊因為比較符合人們的工作節奏和生活習性，時效性較半月刊和月刊強，所以在世界新聞雜志中占據絕大多數，我國也一樣。相對于報紙等其他新聞媒介而言，新聞雜志表現新聞的方式更多的是提供新聞的背景資料（有時提供背景材料比新聞事件本身更重要），并且以此說明新聞的發生對現在以及將來的影響。也就是說，它不是像其他新聞媒介那樣著重報道動態新聞，而是對新聞事件進行有縱深、有廣度、有背景、有分析、有評論的深層報道。從事新聞雜志工作的業內人士也常說：新聞雜志與報紙相比的一個優勢是"后發制人"，這種后發制人意味著它的大量的報道必須具有深刻性或者深入性，如同當各種媒介以它們各自的特點關注著露出海面的冰山一角時，新聞雜志則把目光更多地投入到了海面以下那巨大的山體。
3.廣播。比報紙具有感染力；不受文化程度限制；傳播迅速。但是，其保留性差；無法對文字進行深度開掘。
4.電視。有感染力和說服力；不受文化程度限制；傳播迅速。但是，其保留性差。
5.網絡“第四大眾傳媒”
公認的大眾傳媒主要包括報紙、廣播、雜志、書籍和電影等六大媒介。隨著數字化技術的發展，電腦硬件的更新換代，互聯網技術迅速普及和網站的大量建立，互聯網正成為一種新的媒體廣泛進入人們的生活。如今，國際上已把互聯網納入六大媒介中，并將其稱為繼報紙、廣播、電視之后的“第四大眾傳媒”。這說明，人們已經認同了互聯網的作用，能夠同報紙、廣播、電視等新聞媒介一樣，廣泛地傳遞新聞信息。依托于互聯網進行的新聞傳播活動，具備了其許多的優勢，這主要表現在：（1）．包容了傳統傳播媒介的所有信息形式，整合了文字、聲音、圖象等多種傳播的方式，實現了真正意義上的“多媒體”。（2）．傳播質量得以提升，受干擾程度降低，接收效果的物質實體有了保證。（3）．能夠以不同的方式和手段，靈活的報道同一事件，不致使人產生疲勞感和厭煩。此外，就網絡新聞本身而言，除了具備了網絡所共有的優勢之外，它還具有時效性強、容量大、速度快、超地域、超鏈接、可檢索等特點，這些都猛烈的沖擊著傳統的新聞出版方式乃至整個新聞出版產業。)
