Characteristics and differences of news mass communication between China and Russia

Abstract

Mass communications in China and Russia have unique characteristics and differences. Both countries have state media, but they differ in terms of censorship, propaganda and the level of government influence. China's media is tightly controlled by the Communist Party, which emphasizes censorship and promotes government ideology. However, Russian news communication may create more independent sectors, although government influence remains. Both countries use the media to shape public opinion and promote national interests, reflecting their different political agendas and historical contexts.
