Study On The Revision Of Xinhua Daily In Yan’an Rectification Period

"Xinhua Daily"was born in the Kuomintang-ruled area in the early days of the Anti-Japanese War.Its special geographical position in the Kuomintang-controlled area is not only the product of Kuomintang-Communist cooperation,but also the political propaganda needs of the Party in the revolutionary stage.This situation gave“Xinhua Daily"the special mission of propagating the party’s ideals and beliefs to the people in Kuomintang-controlled area in the special historical stage.Therefore,in the overall reformation of the Communist Party newspaper in 1942,many aspects of the revision of"Xinhua Daily"inevitably showed some particularity.The reformation of"Xinhua Daily"is the result of many factors.In 1942,the changes of war and political situation at home and abroad challenged the construction of the Party and the propaganda of the Party’s newspaper.The rectification movement carried out by the Communist Party of China,also put forward new requirements for the work of the Party’s newspaper.At the same time,before the reformation,as a Party newspaper of the Communist Party of China,"Xinhua Daily"did have some unqualified palaces,such as weak Party spirit and separation from the masses have also emerged in the previous work.These subjective and objective factors have jointly contributed to the newspaper’s reformation.In line with the goal of making newspapers the mouthpiece of the Party and the mouthpiece of the people,"Xinhua Daily"has carried out in-depth reforms from the surface to the inside,layering emphasis on the two principles of Party spirit and mass character in its reformation.The first step in the reformation of"Xinhua Daily"is to innovate the layout of the newspaper.By increasing the proportion,supplements and columns,the number of newspaper reports on the anti-Japanese war behind the enemy lines and the construction of the Party’s base areas will be expanded.Then the newspapers put forward new requirements for themselves from the quality of the content of the report.By paying attention to the language of the article,the selection of materials and the interpretation of the Party’s documents,the quality of the content of the report has realized the implementation of the Party spirit and the mass character.Finally,"Xinhua Daily"implements the main principles of newspaper revision from the surface to the internal organization of the newspaper.On the premise of limited learning experience and economic conditions,the newspaper applies the principles of Party spirit and mass character,which are prominent in the revision,to the reform of the newspaper’s management mode,and at the same time to the newspaper.In the process of learning and implementing,every staff member in the newspaper has promoted the implementation of the basic principles in the newspaper reformation from inside to outside.The emergence of"Xinhua Daily"has opened up a precedent for the Party to publicly run newspapers in the areas under the control of the Kuomintang.Some of its ways and means of reformation are even more inexperienced.However,the success of its reformation has provided a new path for the development and reform of the Party newspapers in the future.Among them,newspapers have persisted on the Party’s nature,mass nature,militancy and organization of the Party newspapers in a restrictive environment.In addition,the innovation of Xinhua Daily on the basis of the requirements of the times has become its unique experience as a reformation of Party newspapers.When the socialist society with Chinese characteristics enters a new era,the universality of Party newspaper reading is greatly different from that of the Anti-Japanese War.At the same time,it also challenges the development of Party newspaper in the new era.It has to be said that the development and progress of the times will constantly put forward new requirements for the construction of Party newspaper,so how to comply with the requirements of the development of times when some qualities must be abide.At this time,we can look for experience from the history of the development of Party newspapers.Through constant,shallow-to-deep revision and innovation,Party newspapers can maintain their authority and universality in the fierce competition of new media.
