报刊是历史最悠久的“老”’媒体【1】,即使以诞生于16世纪的近代印刷报刊为例,也已经经历了400多年的岁月。20世纪是传播科技突飞猛进的世纪,其中最具影响力的“新”媒体是20年代诞生的广播和30年代诞生的电视。然而,到20世纪末,因特网(Internet)的崛起和风行,令此前所有的媒体黯然失色。可以预料,21世纪的媒体世界绝对是网络为王的世界。

The press is the oldest “old” media [1], and even the modern printed newspapers, which were born in the 16th century, have experienced more than 400 years. The 20th century was a century of rapid progress in communication technology. One of the most influential “new” media was the broadcasting of the 1920s and the television of the 1930s. However, the rise and popularity of the Internet by the end of the 20th century eclipsed all previous media outlets. It can be predicted that the media world in the 21st century is definitely the one with the Internet as the king.
