News reports from court rooms always draw great attention from media receptors in China. The mass media not only satisfies people's need to enjoy their right to know, but also reflects people's criticism of the judiciary. Due to the lack of common understanding and relevant rules, the relation between media and the judiciary is experiencing a period of instability. There are frequent conflicts between freedom of the media and judicial fairness, between media's right to criticize and the judicial dignity, between reporting right and court order. Generally speaking, the media is in an advantaged position in these conflicts and carries a lot of expectations of the society.

Therefore, an institutional framework needs to be established to balance between the media and the judiciary.the Chinese accounting and how to grasp the opportunity is a worthiness research subject.
